Queen Elizabeth’s statue goes up at Queen’s Park, despite misgivings of Indigenous MPP
The queen has landed after years in limbo.
A 3,500-pound bronze statue of Queen Elizabeth II was hoisted into place in front of the legislature Monday while Premier Doug Ford hosted Toronto Mayor Olivia Chow at a meeting inside.
… The board includes New Democrat MPP Sol Mamakwa (Kiiwetinoong), who objected to the installation, saying the money would be better used finding the unmarked graves of Indigenous children at residential school sites.
