Statue of John Deighton, Bronze statue in Gastown, Vancouver, Canada.

The Statue of John Deighton was a bronze figure on a stone pedestal at the intersection of Carrall and Water Street in Vancouver's historic district. It depicted the man who founded the first saloon in this area and became a focal point for visitors exploring Gastown.

Vern Simpson sculpted the bronze figure, commissioned in 1970 by a group of Gastown developers, and it was moved to several spots in the neighbourhood before settling at Carrall and Water streets near the Globe Saloon site. It was splattered with red paint on June 16, 2020, and toppled by protesters on February 14, 2022, during the 31st annual Women's Memorial March; the pedestal was removed on April 4, 2022.

The nickname "Gassy Jack" came from Deighton's gift for talking, and Gastown took its name from it. The bronze carried plaques with his name and the dates 1828–1875, though sources give his birth as November 1830. In 2020 red paint was thrown over the figure and a petition to remove it gathered over 23,000 signatures.

The statue is no longer on site and cannot be visited today. The location at Carrall and Water Street remains easy to find and serves as a reference point while walking through Gastown.

Deighton married a young Squamish woman, which sparked modern conversations about what stories deserve public monuments. This controversial aspect eventually contributed to the statue's removal from the community.
