Sir John A. Macdonald statue
Statue of Sir John A. Macdonald in Victoria Park
The Sir John A. Macdonald statue is a bronze sculpture of Sir John A. Macdonald, at the south entrance to Victoria Park, Regina, Saskatchewan, Canada.
Sonia de Grandmaison sculpted the statue to commemorate Macdonald's achievements as Canada’s first Prime Minister. It was cast in five pieces by John Nugent of Regina using a lost wax technique, and soldered together.
Fund-raising for the statue began in 1891, after Macdonald’s death, but it was not fabricated until 1967.
