    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.

                      One of the greatest and saddest war songs ever written by Australian
                      Eric Bogle


                      https:// http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cnFzCmAyOp8 www.youtube.com/watch?v=cnFzCmAyOp8

                      And The Band Played Waltzing Matilda

                      Now when I was a young man I carried me pack, and I lived the free life of a rover
                      From the Murray's green basin to the dusty outback, well, I waltzed my Matilda all over

                      Then in 1915, my country said son, it's time you stopped rambling, there's work to be done

                      So they gave me a tin hat, and they gave me a gun, and they marched me away to the war

                      And the band played Waltzing Matilda, as the ship pulled away from the Quay

                      And amidst all the cheers, the flag-waving and tears, we sailed off for Gallipoli

                      And how well I remember that terrible day, how our blood stained the sand and the water
                      And of how in that hell that they called Suvla Bay, we were butchered like lambs at the slaughter

                      Johnny Turk he was waiting, he'd primed himself well, he showered us with bullets
                      And he rained us with shell, and in five minutes flat, he'd blown us all straight to hell
                      Nearly blew us right back to Australia

                      But the band played Waltzing Matilda, when we stopped to bury our slain
                      We buried ours, and the Turks buried theirs, then we started all over again

                      And those that were left, well we tried to survive, in that mad world of blood, death and fire

                      And for ten weary weeks I kept myself alive, though around me the corpses piled higher

                      Then a big Turkish shell knocked me arse over head, and when I woke up in my hospital bed
                      And saw what it had done, well I wished I was dead: never knew there was worse things than dyin'

                      For I'll go no more waltzing Matilda, all around the green bush far and free
                      To hang tent and pegs, a man needs both legs-no more waltzing Matilda for me

                      So they gathered the crippled, the wounded, the maimed, and they shipped us back home to Australia
                      The legless, the armless, the blind, the insane, those proud wounded heroes of Suvla

                      And as our ship pulled into Circular Quay, I looked at the place where me legs used to be
                      And thanked Christ there was nobody waiting for me, to grieve, to mourn, and to pity

                      But the band played Waltzing Matilda, as they carried us down the gangway
                      But nobody cheered, they just stood and stared, then they turned all their faces away

                      And so now every April, I sit on me porch, and I watch the parades pass before me
                      And I see my old comrades, how proudly they march, reviving old dreams of past glories

                      And the old men march slowly, old bones stiff and sore, the forgotten heroes of a forgotten war

                      And the young people ask, what are they marching for? ...and I ask myself the same question

                      But the band plays Waltzing Matilda, and the old men still answer the call

                      But as year follows year, more old men disappear, someday no one will march there at all

                      "Waltzing Matilda, Waltzing Matilda, who'll come a-waltzing Matilda with me?

                      And their ghosts may be heard as they march by that billabong, who'll come a-waltzing Matilda with me?"

                            They already have.

                              It's going to be extremely awkward on the upcoming HNIC now that Ron has apologized for Donald's "you people" comment.

                              Both Ron Maclean's parents served in the Canadian military.
