Mackenzie King is infamous for turning away a ship full of Jewish refugees fleeing the Nazis during WW2. A good number of them ended up dying in concentration camps.
He also presided over the internment of Japanese-Canadians.
(Not even suggesting the domain be renamed BTW. After all, it was his estate. Just making things clear about the history. I'd be relatively happy if this contemporary trend mostly stayed on your side of the river.)
