As Saskatoon’s Public School Board debates whether it’s time to get rid of Bedford Road Collegiate’s team name, the “Redmen”, students at a Regina school with the same team name don’t seem too concerned about it.

“I’m half Native and I don’t think it’s offensive personally,” said one student. “It’s just a team name.”

“I really don’t take that much concern,” said another student who identified himself as First Nations. “We’re all human beings in my eyes so there’s no difference with skin pigmentation.”
