Change it back to what the Clovis people called it.

This is the best summary I could come up with:

Instead, city council voted on Thursday evening to rename four civic assets: Yonge-Dundas Square, two subway stations and a library.

Later in the same meeting, council voted to honour controversial former mayor Rob Ford by naming a football stadium after him.

The push to rename Dundas Street began in the midst of the global racial reckoning that followed the killing of George Floyd by police in the U.S.

Councillors voted overwhelmingly in favour of directing staff to do no more work on renaming Dundas Street unless told to do so by council.

A staff report describes “sankofa” as a concept originating in what is now Ghana that “refers to the act of reflecting on and reclaiming teachings from the past which enables us to move forward together.” A recent exhibition at the University of British Columbia put it slightly differently, saying sankofa is “an expression of cultural and political affirmation” based on the idea that “taking pride in heritage helps us move into the future.”

She noted that Henry Dundas might have been pleased that he is no longer sharing billing at the square with George Yonge, a man known for incompetence and his own connections to the slave trade.

And here I thought our priorities were backwards.
