Vancouver School Board chair Janet Fraser is putting forward a motion to create a new school-naming policy that is representative of the city's population and history. "You have to decide, are British prime ministers appropriate names for Vancouver schools?" Last year, two Vancouver schools were renamed to reflect Indigenous communities. Fraser wants the school board to rework its policies so more community groups and local First Nations are included in future decisions. The motion will be put forward at the VSB board meeting on Jan. 29.
