Victoria Park is an 18 acre (73,000 m²) park located in downtown London, Ontario, Canada.
In 1874 the park was transferred to the city and renamed Victoria Park, after Queen Victoria.
As London was the centre of the Western Ontario military district (District No. 1), troops were stationed in the park during the Boer War, World War I, and World War II; there was some minor rioting in the park during the Conscription Crisis of 1944, when conscripts demanded to be sent to Europe.

 Mnemographia Canadensis - Essay 14 - In No Uncertain Terms: the Victoria Park Women's Monument, London, Ontario
The Park is London’s primary space of civic memory, a plot of land in the centre of the city dotted with memorials to events, such as the Boer War and the two World Wars, that succeeding generations of Londoners believed to have shaped London’s communal identity.
The Victoria Park Women’s Monument was intended as an argument that the boundary between the Montreal Massacre and local violence against women is permeable, that the national and the local are mutually inflecting because they share a common devaluation of women and of women’s experience in history.
Likely the reason that Victoria Park was not mentioned in W.E.R.F.’s press release of December 6, 1993 is that no permission had yet been given to place the Monument in the park; the Foundation’s proposal was still only a request.
