Ottawa's Trump Avenue could be in for name change
CBC News ^ | 1/26/21 | CBC News

Residents of Ottawa's Trump Avenue could soon have a new address, but unlike the erstwhile U.S. president, they're not going anywhere.

Trump Avenue is a quiet street of brown brick single-family homes fronted by wide driveways, nestled in the city's Central Park neighbourhood, just off Merivale Road.

On Saturday, the city began consulting with residents "to ascertain their level of support to rename their street," according to an email from the office of their city councillor, Riley Brockington, who also delivered notices to each home on the street.

According to Brockington, the consultation "follows a number of recent and some older requests to my office" to drop Donald Trump's name, which was adopted long before the New York real estate mogul and reality TV star entered politics, and is in keeping with the neighbourhood's Manhattan theme.

Meanwhile Democrat Klansman/recruiter Robert Byrd’s name is everywhere and things were named AFTER they knew about his disgraceful past.

It’s Canada so recommend changing it to CCP Place or
Xiden Lane.

Rename away, you evil doers. . .Don’t you know this world is not our home. These people need to be more concerned about their forever sight of the “Streets Paved with Gold”. Just more goats self-separating themselves from the sheep.

Not the least bit surprised. Just like Washington, Ottawa is also filled with swamp creatures, in this case, dyed-in-the-wool LIEberal toadies.

“[T]he Party member, like the proletarian, tolerates present-day conditions because he has no standards of comparison. He must be cut off from the past, just as he must be cut off from foreign countries, because it is necessary for him to believe that he is better off than his ancestors and that the average level of material comfort is constantly rising.”

Who controls the past controls the future.

“... changing it to CCP Place or Xiden Lane”

If they change it they should keep the Trump signs because the full Trump story hasn’t been told.

I’m not someone to advise Mr. Trump on his financial decisions, but any of his properties that are targeted by the left, including his NYC Trump tower, should have a huge, gaudy For Sale sign hung on them, and they should be sold to the worst slum lords the Donald can find.

The whole darned country is the same....a smattering of conservatives here and there, but not enough to make much of a difference any longer. It’s the Ministry of Truth calling the shots now.
