So the City of Vancouver, Canada, just got super woke and changed the name of a street that was previously called "Trutch St," to...

Well, just watch the video, because I can't do this.

VIDEO AT LINK...........

Šxʷməθkʷəy̓əmsəm Street.

Apparently, it's pronounced "sh-MUS-quee-um-AW-sum," which in English translates to "Musqueamview," after the "Musqueam" people.

A Musqueam elder celebrated their little "decolonization win," saying:

It's a great feeling to actually see the name being changed, regardless of the political issue, just to see our language out in the public eye where people are living, it's a really, really heartlifting feeling. Our youth can see it, we can see it, that our language is finally out in the open rather than stifled.

Say it with us! Šxʷməθkʷəy̓əmsəm!

The reactions are what you'd expect:

@UnsureKris/X

🤣🤣🤣 Another diversity win for Canada!

I was in Vancouver briefly last June. The city seemed very old to me. The high rise apartment buildings reminded me of Soviet era tenements.

Smokes ‘em Awesome street.

“Chargoggagoggmanchauggagoggchaubunagungamaugg” is the name of a lake in Massachusetts.

I’m actually in favor of that name change. And I am trying to do something similar. I’ve petitioned the mayor of my town to have a street named after my favorite composer.

... or Cabrini Green.

With that name, the locals will continue to call it Trutch St.

Renaming things is one way of declaring that one hates oneself and wants to wipe oneself out and be replaced by savages.

People just called him ‘Smitty’ for short...........

[Responsibility2nd]

It could have been a worse name. Like this little town in Austria.

[Ann Archy]

That’s in Wales.....right?

[aquila48]

But they still call it “street”.

Like giving a pacifier to a baby.

[TexasGator]

“Like this little town in Austria.”

They changed the name.
