with all the statues being torn down and streets, schools, army bases, etc being renamed, I am so glad I can not yet find any hint of scandal regarding Captain Vancouver. Would we have to rename the city and all business and teams and such. Could be a nightmare.

The paint thrown over the Captain George Vancouver statue was done in a very haphazard way.

The Gassy Jack statue defacing looks like it was done by the same perpetrator.

In contrast, the blackfacing of the P.E.T. statue in the GTA was no doubt carried out by someone with a modicum of artistic ability. (I guess there are no statues of Justin around--yet).
