A school in Winnipeg, Manitoba, is considering removal of its Mohawks team nickname.
The Morden Collegiate principal is worried the team's name and symbols are offensive.
The school got rid of its tomahawk logo but the school still uses feathers on its letterhead and has an image of an Indian in headdress on its gym floor.
