Yonge-Dundas Square, TTC stations to be renamed under new city council proposal
A controversial plan to rename all of Dundas Street appears to be off the table, replaced with a proposal to rename Yonge-Dundas Square and two subway stations that bear the 18th-century Scotsman’s name.
Coun. Chris Moise on Thursday morning tabled a proposal that would, in recognition of Henry Dundas’s role in the slave trade, direct the Yonge-Dundas Square board in collaboration with city officials, to undertake a process to rename the square by “removing the name Dundas and adopting the new name,” to be chosen by a city review committee by June 2024.
