Vancouver mayor moves to change street named for colonial leader who cut size of B.C. reserves


The City of Vancouver may soon change the name of a street that honours B.C. Mayor Kennedy Stewart said he would be putting forward a motion to change the name of Trutch Street, a 17-block road in Kitsilano named for Joseph Trutch, who served as lieutenant governor from 1871 to 1876. "I have spoken with Musqueam leadership about renaming Trutch Street and am in full support. If approved, the actual name change would likely take some time due to finding a replacement and the logistical issues involved. There have been campaigns to change the name of Trutch Street — both in Vancouver and Victoria, where he also has a street — for many years.
