    Donald's facing a penalty

    Like Coach's corner, and how Cherry talks about our Canadian soldiers and Veterans. Don was right about Canadian's wearing poppies to show respect, but the comment "you people who come here" might get him in the penalty box with CBC.

    He’s totally on the mark!!! I ve messaged CBC that I support his comments.
    When you come here you respect our traditions our way of doing things. It’s the reason why you people want to come here. If we lose those reasons we won’t be the great country we are.

      What will inevitably get completely lost in the rush to judge Don is that the comment was fundamentally accurate.

        I’m sure its totally fine to go to these “other countries” and uproot their traditions and laws....

        Only when the white man becomes a minority will it be ok for indifference. Don’t believe or like that comment just wait.....

            Canada has a charter of rights and freedoms that enshrines Canadian values in the constitution and you can't discriminate against immigrants, visible minorities, other races , or religions or LGBQT people.

            These are the values of Canadians and the Canada we know and love and those who don't hold those values of inclusion should shut up because they don't believe in Canadian values.

              .
              That's right chuck and they cant discriminate against our way of life either. The poppy is off limits. Trying to put a rainbow on it is blasphemy. Same as doing that to the Canadian flag. Its a minority group trying to coopt a national symbol for their own gain.

                I agree, Canada has a charter of rights and freedoms that enshrines Canadian values in the constitution and you can't discriminate against immigrants, visible minorities, other races , or religions or LGBQT people.

                  People can honour the veterans anyway they choose. White poppies, multicoloured poppies, no poppies and quiet reflection. Individuals can choose.

                  What's more important is that we honour their sacrifices by ensuring that we don't let racism, bigotry, hate and violence flourish.

                  Our vets will have died in vain if we let this happen.

                  Both Conservatives and Liberals talk a good line but when it comes to supporting injured vets they both have been dismal.

                    Only a matter of time before the left and its enablers starts to frame the poppy as a symbol of colonialism and white nationalism.
