Most Canadians respect Terry Fox and War Memorials. Most Canadians don’t steal from food banks. Most Canadians would never wave a swastika and if they saw one, they would take it down. And most Canadians are vaccinated. I consider those people to be the true patriots.

My pal Gordon Pinsent passed. I saw him a few weeks ago, his twinkle as bright as ever. I looked up to him as the Rowdyman but loved him as Porky Pinsent from Grand Falls. He cut the path the rest of us travelled. A household name based on Canadian work. The best there ever was

If you can walk up to the Deputy PM and call her those names yet still claim there is no freedom in Canada, I would suggest trying that with Putin. This behaviour does not make me think ‘I wonder what I can learn about vaccine science from this man.’
This is unacceptable treatment of the Deputy PM while visiting in her home province of Alberta.
This man & woman actually congratulate themselves in the parking lot, as though they are fighting for freedom.
How exactly is calling the DPM a F**ken B**ch fighting for freedom?

Dear
@EricTrump
The name isn't offensive if it's referring to the actual person. For instance, if I said you were as dumb as Eric Trump it's not offensive because you ARE Eric Trump.
The irony of an ABC reporter (whose parent company Disney has profited nearly half a billion dollars on the movie “Pocahontas”) inferring that the name is “offensive” is truly staggering to me.

Yes there is racism in Canada. Our own prime minister thought black face was okay. Growing up white in Nfld & Lab, like Rex and I did, can make you think it doesn’t. That’s why media should ask POC to talk now. If Fog was the issue of the day, then they should ask us.

Non-Indigenous fishers: “How would you like it if one day people showed up in boats out of nowhere to take away your right to your resources?”
I think Indigenous people know exactly how that feels. They have a right to a moderate livelihood. Stop these assaults.
Two Mi’kmaq fishermen say they were followed and barricaded inside by the mob, threatened and saw thousands of pounds of Indigenous-caught lobster destroyed. One said the crowd vandalized his truck and threatened to burn the building down with him inside.
