The Legislative Assembly of British Columbia
5th Session
41st Parliament
A
Remember:
Burnaby
North
Thank
You.
Mr.
speaker,
a
large
bronze
workhorse
sits
on
its
haunches
at
a
busy
intersection
in
Burnaby
frozen
in
the
act
of
laying
down
a
yoke
around
its
neck
behind
it,
a
bronze
Log,
the
chains
that
once
attached
that
log
to
the
workhorse
now
broken.
This
is
a
new
public
art
work
and
it's
called
the
retired
draft
horse
and
the
last
pole
pulled
log
surrounded
by
a
rapidly
changing
and
rising
skyline.
This
site
may
seem
out
of
place.
A
It
also
honors
the
working
people
who
continue
to
transform
and
modernize
our
city
through
their
labour,
their
service,
their
commerce
and
their
commitment
to
community
the
next
time
you
happen
to
be
traveling
along
King's
way,
perhaps
in
start
and
stop
traffic.
We're
riding
the
SkyTrain
I.
Invite
you
to
take
a
moment
to
reflect
on
the
generations
of
brain
and
muscle
upon
whose
shoulders
we
stand
and
when
you
pass
by
the
coroner
of
Edmonds
and
King's
way,
look
for
a
bronze
statue.
