				He said what many Canadians think but won't say. What is the message here? That we can't criticize those who do not wear poppies? Why don't they wear poppies?
			
			
			
				On the one hand he painted all immigrants with one brush stroke. But, on the other hand he never mentioned race.
			
			
			
				He said "you people" which could also cover all Canadians who do not wear a poppy.
He's been controversial and they may have been wanting to find reasons to get rid of him and they did.
He is right though. Today, I observed a lot of seemingly non-white people not wearing a poppy. He was criticizing that "obliviousness" to Canada's culture.

Most people under the age of thirty don't wear a poppy. That's just what I've observed.

Then that is just too bad. Don Cherry was just expressing his opinion but why should he be silenced? Is that what the left wants now to make the world silent about opinions such as these? They want us all to be just ONE-SIDED? God help us all.

Yes. More and more every day now. 
Cherry issue aside, THAT is where we are now
Worse, I see no reversal coming ... only deeper and deeper toward total control
And yes, in the end I do see "total" - 1984 is no longer just a theoretical fantasy .. and is "the near future" and not the past

				In the world of a very few years ago, Cherry's issue would have been very minor, a few gripes from a very few,   and the world would have moved on
And in fact, in that world he would have received much support ... but the issue here is very effective censorship
There are actually 2 "today" issues here. "Respect being a given" is the other
			
			
			
				It's kind of scary how people can lose their career over something so petty.  Freaking unbelievable, that White people today have turned into nothing but a bunch of sheeps.

You don't think he has a point? Wearing a poppy is Canadian culture. If you are going to live and breathe in this country, don't you think you ought to assimilate? Tell me the answer to that is no.

I've regularly said that to vets. Those on the charity tables and those who didn't want to expound on their service. Charity table vets are far different than quiet vets. Charity table vets frame their self worth with their part in wars. Quiet vets want to forget and be absolved for their actions. 
Mind you I rarely say it in a mean nature. I don't like pointless wars or aggression.

				For anyone who wants to read it, here is a pretty fair assessment of 
"THE HEART OF THE MATTER"
Leftist Elites Distorted & Falsified Don Cherry's Comments, Then Attacked Their Own Distortions & Falsifications
(A tactic often seen by the corrupt leftist elites as they attempt to manipulate people)
Don Cherry's firing represents the disturbing and despicable 'triumph' of an oft-used leftist tactic:
Take someone's remarks, distort them into what you wish they had actually said, and then attack the distorted new remarks you made up.
For example, Cherry has been attacked for 'racist comments,' and for apparently saying 'people of colour didn't contribute as Veterans.' Peter Mansbridge even wrote an article for CBC that had a subheading implying Cherry had said all Canadian Veterans were white.
Except, Cherry didn't even come close to saying any of the things above. - NOT EVEN CLOSE.
Yet, that fact didn't stop the corrupt establishment media elites from simply pretending that Cherry did say those things, then attacking him for saying things he didn't say, and then getting him fired after generating an outraged reaction to his made up comments.
"CBC in a nutshell: lie about what Cherry said, invent a narrative, then challenge their own invented narrative.
If you are wear a poppy and support our troops, Don Cherry was not talking about you!!"
It's a disgusting tactic, and it's one the left loves using more and more – because it works.
The elites count on the weakness of corporate CEOs, who simply panic at the first sign of controversy and desperately try to make it go away.
That's what happened to Cherry, as Sportsnet and Ron MacLean threw Cherry under the bus before there could even be a sustained pushback against the false narrative the leftist elites pushed.
At this point of course, it's inevitable that common sense Canadians will have no choice but to use those same tactics to push back and stop this elitist insanity.

I'd say to Don Cherry I'd rather give that two dollars to someone who is hungry or can't feed their kids.
If you wear a poppy and understand and respect what it means to wear it then Don Cherry's comment would not have bothered you.
Dinklage: Can you say that to the face of a veteran?
Is there any veteran here? What do you say to Dinklage regarding his comment?
I've regularly said that to vets. Those on the charity tables and those who didn't want to expound on their service. Charity table vets are far different than quiet vets. Charity table vets frame their self worth with their part in wars. Quiet vets want to forget and be absolved for their actions. 
Mind you I rarely say it in a mean nature. I don't like pointless wars or aggression.
No one wants pointless wars. I don't. However, the fact remains that veterans went willingly into the fight. Some came back and some did not. They exist. Do not demean them. You have freedom because they had courage.

They may have knocked Don Cherry to the ice with a hit he didn't see coming.
Now watch him get back up.
You people out there who want the 85-year-old Cherry back, here's the news you have been hoping for.  You people who wanted him to fade away are out of luck as the former NHL coach of the year is going to be able to exercise his free speech, after all.
Don Cherry's Grapevine is back once again. This time as a podcast.
And yes, the very first one will address Cherry's firing from Sportsnet.
"But that's not all we talked about," Cherry told me Monday. "We are talking hockey, of course. It's going to be terrific. In this one I am talking about The Rocket (Maurice Richard), one of the all-time greats."
One thing for sure about the new show is MacLean will not be in his foxhole.
So who will be?
Mostly the plan is to talk hockey. And he won't have just seven minutes to get it all out.
"The first podcast is about half an hour," said Tim.
Initial podcasts will be voice - soon will have cameras and adverts etc
