Renewed call to remove McGill from Montreal metro station name

The African Diaspora Association of Canada is calling on the city of Montreal and the STM to re-baptize the McGill metro station. The association says hearing McGill’s name is a traumatic experience for Black people. But the STM says they can’t change the names of metro stations because they are part of the toponymy of the city of Montreal and considered part of its heritage.
