Do you agree with the removal of Sir. John A. Macdonald symbols?

For anyone who doesn't know he was Canada's first prime Minister.

Some people do not like him because taken from the article below "You set in motion some of the strictest elements of Canadian Indigenous policy: The Indian Residential Schools, which introduced a nationwide program of assimilation in 1883 that was, essentially, sub-contracted to the Christian churches."

On the other hand he also (taken from the article below) "In 1885, he introduced a law that would have extended suffrage to property-owning unmarried women and widows. As attorney general of the pre-confederation province of Canada, he battled to protect escaped American slaves from extradition. His government persuaded the British government in 1862 to pass a new habeas corpus act that imposed new restrictions on cooperation with U.S. slave hunters. He welcomed Jewish immigration to Canada and for a long time strenuously but unsuccessfully resisted efforts to exclude Chinese immigrants (he later flip-flopped when he saw that the cause was lost). He headed a political coalition that bridged Canada’s great divide between French speakers and English speakers—and worked all his life for accommodation and respect between the two mutually suspicious cultures."

Also from the second article "In 2018, his image was removed from the Canadian $10 bill, which it had decorated since 1971. His name has been quietly scrubbed from the Ottawa airport named in his honor in 1993. In August 2020, vandals toppled a statue of Macdonald in Montreal. The city of Kingston, Ontario, legally removed his statue on June 18—a special blow to Macdonald’s memory in the city he represented in Parliament throughout most of his career.* This summer, the province of Prince Edward Island removed a modern statue of Macdonald from its capital, Charlottetown. Even the small town of Picton, Ontario, where Macdonald argued his first law cases, will soon remove a statue erected with donations from local residents, my wife’s family among them. Macdonald’s name has been erased from university and school buildings, and even book prizes."

"These changes are not driven by public opinion. A 2018 poll by the Angus Reid Institute found that 70 percent of Canadians opposed the erasure of Macdonald’s image, compared with only 11 percent who supported it. Another poll in summer 2020 found that 75 percent of Canadians opposed the “spontaneous” teardown of Macdonald statues."
