The new university being built in Langford, on Vancouver Island, may be named after former Premier John Horgan. Horgan passed away on Tuesday at the age of 65 after a battle with cancer.
The Langford community is calling for the university to be named in his honor.
Langford MLA Ravi Parmar expressed his commitment to preserving his mentor’s legacy and supports the community's request.
Meanwhile, former city mayor Stu Young stated that Horgan played a key role in bringing the university to Langford, and naming it after him would be a fitting tribute. The university is expected to open next fall.
