As Canadians and Quebecers, we need to understand our long history of anti-Black racism. This is not the way to do that though. Please remove these racial slurs from place names. It's a disgrace.

Il est bien connu dans toute la Francophonie qui ce terme dégradant n'a plus de place dans le lexique d'aujourd'hui. Comment ça se fait qu'il se retrouve dans la toponomie québecoise? Une honte!!!!

Seriously we are "considering" this should be removed. It needs to be gone as of this second.

Nous devrons respecter les personnes Noires par leurs noms au Québec. Ils ont contribué à la fondation de la société québécoise.

I shouldn't even need to explain why this word of hatred should be removed from our national sites. How it has lasted so long is simply baffling

just because something is historic doesn't mean it isn't offensive. People used to suck, we're trying to move forward and not suck as much, stuff like this is holding us back.

En espérant que le Québec continue d'avancer dans la bonne direction, en s'excusant pour les tort qu'on a fait et en évitant de perpétuer ce racisme.

Anything built on hate and oppression needs to be removed. Only together can we heal our country and heal our world.

And change them to names that honour Black communities and community members.
