Ontario city looks to drop ‘America Avenue’ street name amid Trump’s trade war

Ontario city looks to drop ‘America Avenue’ street name amid Trump’s trade war

Global News
Thursday, April 10, 2025 2:00 PM GMT

Vaughan, Ont., is looking to rename a residential street currently dubbed 'America Avenue' given the fallout from U.S. President Donald Trump’s trade war.

Vaughan is looking to rename a residential street currently dubbed “America Avenue” given the fallout from U.S. President Donald Trump’s trade war.

The city, which is located just north of Toronto, has a survey on its website regarding the street’s renaming, indicating it favours switching it to “Terry Fox Avenue” in celebration of Canadian identity.

“Terry Fox is one of Canada’s most beloved national heroes, whose courage, determination and selflessness have inspired generations of Canadians and raised millions of dollars for cancer research,” it said.

“Before any decision is made on the street renaming, the city wants to understand how residents living on America Avenue feel about this proposed change.”

The survey is only open to Vaughan residents who live on America Avenue, which is near Jane Street and Teston Road. It closes on April 24.

On its website, the city elaborated on why it’s exploring the name change.

“Recent tariff threats and trade disputes with the United States have reminded Canadians of the importance of national pride, unity, and the celebration of Canadian heroes who transcend political and economic tensions,” it said.

“Patriotism and the recognition of Canadian symbols and figures strengthen our national identity and foster a sense of pride among our residents.”
