Canadian city considers renaming street named after Scots politician Henry Dundas

Toronto City Council is to launch a public consultation over renaming a street named after 18th-century Scottish politician Henry Dundas

Oct 11, 2020

The name of the major thoroughfare in the Canadian city, which shares a moniker with one of Edinburgh's best known streets, is described as "problematic" due to his connections with the slave trade by local resident Andrew Lochead, who started a petition that now has 14,500 signatures.
