VANCOUVER, CANADA - A Canadian city allegedly spent more than $33,000 in taxpayer money to rename a street after an indigenous tribe — a move one lawmaker slammed as bowing to “woke” voices.

MLA Dallas Brodie claimed the City of Vancouver spent $33,500 over the last three years to rename Trutch Street — which was named after British Columbia’s first governor general, Joseph Trutch — to šxʷməθkʷəy̓əmasəm Street.

The new name translates to Musqueamview, referencing the Musqueam people who had their land taken by Trutch.
