I will stick another toe in the pond here. I think I am on the same page as marcos. An hour east of me down #12 here in Alberta one passes through the communities of: Throne, Consort, Coronation, et al, towns obviously named in recogniton of their British ties. They have already lost their elevators{ ie. grain handling facilities}, rail lines, and with these a major portion of their existance....what is to be gained by taking away their cultural heritage? While I don't agree with everything done in the name of the British Empire I think all in all what it represented in Canada is to be respected and remembered.
