Avril Lavigne likely to get 30 foot bronze statue erected
Avril Lavigne or Sir John A MacDonald to get statue in Napanee
Quote:
The Ontario town of Napanee is facing a challenging decision: A portion of the town's budget has been set aside to erect a bronze monument in honour of the town's most famous former resident but they are having trouble making their final pick. After drawing up a very extensive list, the choice has come down to two names: Sir John A Macdonald and Avril Lavigne. However, the question remains - who is more famous? Peter Oldring had the opportunity to speak to President of the Property Standards Committee Steve Wendy, the man now charged with making the final difficult decision; a decision that has only been made harder by the announcement of Lavigne's engagement to Nickleback front-man Chad Kroeger
It doesn't seem right to choose a living popstar over some old dead guy who has probably done something fairly significant somewhere down the line if he's still remembered now.
Edit; Oh, first PM of Canada? Then it's gotta be him...
