<p>Thanks Bob.</p>
<p>I like the comment made by the woman who retained the take-out window at her restaurant - for "coloured" people.</p>
<p>She said, "If we forget where we have been we may get lost again."</p>
<p>That may well be a comment that could contribute to Canada's debate on whether statues of our first Prime Minister, for example, ought to be torn down; or re-naming Dundas Street and Ryerson University, etc..</p>
<p>Yes, they have decided to re-name the MacDonald Building at Queen's University School of Law in Sir John A.'s home town.</p>
<p>Stay hopeful;</p>
<p>Allan</p>
<p>ps - I have the two volume set of Donald Creighton's biography of Sir John A. if anyone wishes to purchase it!</p>

How about this photographer who started noticing the hidden signs of the racially oppressive past...movie theatre side entrances, take out windows, walls in old diners, the sign in Louisiana that read “change.” See attached.
