@SumKindaMunster There are 62 residents on that street and council rules require that they are allowed to vote on the name change since each household will incur costs because of the name change.
A vote in 2021 narrowly failed (21-21 with 20 abstentions) but the new proposal currently sits at 100% to erase the criminal's name from their homes.
Of course, this pales into insignificance compared to when the americans eventually erase trump's actions and trump's name from everything.
Canada is all bluster and socialist grandstanding . The US buys 73% of all Canadian goods and is responsible for 78% of their cash flow. They insist on having a trade deficit , so Trump is about to show them the art of the deal.
i mean, if we wanna use that logic, Trump is deranged by Carney by changing Lake Ontario to Lake America. especially when Ontario predates both countries, and some American towns are even called Ontario too.
@legendaryssjgsskaiokenevolved It's not a logical response. It's an escalation. Escalating further is engaging in the same behavior Trump is, and again, I can't help but note the hypocrisy.
It’s not so much “how dare he rename things,” as it is, “why’s he wasting time renaming things instead of working on making things more affordable.” He cares more about his ego than about our pain.
@Carla I don't agree. It's symbolic either way. If Trump's renaming of Lake Ottawa is petty, then so is removing his name from a street as an act of retaliation.
Every record has been destroyed or falsified, every book rewritten, every picture has been repainted, every statue and street building has been renamed, every date has been altered. And the process is continuing day by day and minute by minute. History has stopped. Nothing exists except an endless present in which the Party is always right.
It’s so silly, they do this here as well, change names, leave the names, all this nonsense costs money, surely there are better things to spend money on?
@SumKindaMunster Ya, it seems like city politicians are renaming things for "likes" and also to avoid real issues. But I do not know what happens in Canada and if that is a normal for city administrators. I bet it's an election year for the mayor in that city.
@SumKindaMunster Justin Eichorn was elected to the Minnesota Senate in 2016 and 2020
On March 17, 2025, Eichorn was one of five Republican authors of a bill, SF2589, that would designate "Trump Derangement Syndrome" as an officially recognized mental illness in Minnesota.
