Cancelling Canada Day- How far is too far?
Well it sounds like our most woke cities are having another competition and cancelling Canada Day Fireworks one by one.
Toronto claiming they are offensive and the city is basically broke, so can't afford them. Vancouver claiming that it's offensive to some and too expensive to run. Now Calgary has gone off the deep end and claiming it is offensive to the Chinese and the Aboriginals. Not good for birds. Not good for the environment. Expensive, and every other excuse they can kick out. https://www.todocanada.ca/calgary-ca...sensitivities/ That council and mayor Calgary voted in is something else. Never thought they could out-woke the 13 imbiciles running our city, but it seems to be a tight competition most days. |

Back to the topic. This woke world is simply getting to be out of control. Getting pretty sick and tired "offending" quakes... You wait....next...Calgary Stampede! |
Just heard this morning that here in PG the fireworks are cancelled as well.
Gonna be Canada wide?? |
Ok. No fireworks. Got it
But I can still get drunk and shoot my pistol in the air, right? Please tell me they didnt cancel that..... As a point of fact, Pierre Trudeau said that Canada has no culture. Thus, his son believes the same. It filters down over time. |
I am totally on board with canceling Canada day.
I would much rather celebrate Alberta's independence day. |

When the citizens elect the woke to run their cities, this is what they get. Cities give out free drugs to the addicts, yet it's too expensive to have fireworks. People need to stop electing the woke, if they want this stupidity to end.

F it.....I'm going fishing....much easier to understand. :)

Destroy Canadian culture. Destroy Canadian sovereignty.
Why is Justin Trudeau destroying so many Canadian icons, including our passport?
Erase the past, control the future by Pierre P https://www.youtube.com/watch? Manny Montenegrino joins Ezra https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5pPiMm7YQjA UNDRIP is the vessel. Erase the past because it's all about our indigenous genocide. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=duuD8AMsYEI It's all planned. People still think it's far-fetched and a conspiracy. These days, the only difference between a conspiracy and the truth is time. You just can't fix stupid. Just watch the Orange communists win this election. :budo: |
Let's just cancel Confederation and start from scratch. :lol:

Because I’m an outdoorsman that cares about wildlife I support firework bans. If that makes me woke, so be it. I support canceling helium balloons too. I could care less about any other reason to shut them down but won’t lose any sleep over knowing some places are going to do without them.
Big deal. That’s first world problem if I ever saw one. |
Apparently that psycho in Calgary isn't messing around. She's reminding everyone that there can be a $100,000 fine for shooting off fire works in city limits unless approved, and there will be no approvals on Canada day.
Another good article on the subject. https://livewirecalgary.com/2023/05/...-return-grows/ |

That scumbag Pierre Trudeau said "Although there are two official languages, there is no official culture” So Pierre says it and it's automatically true..... |

What a dog's breakfast of a thread this quickly became. Posts that violated forum rules, as well as posts that quoted them, have been deleted, and a suspension levied.
Read the forum rules. Color inside the lines. Simple. |
Honestly, the more surprising part is that Edmonton hasn't done the same yet.
Our lefty mayor sat at the high table of evil in Trudeau's cabinet. I expect Sohi would be 2 scoops in on cancelling Canada Day fireworks for these vague justifications of environment and cultural sensitives. Whatever the **** that is. I guess wait for it hey. |
Council readies motion to bring back Canada Day fireworks
The amount of time and money wasted on the tax payer dime is mind numbing, but at least some of them are trying to do the right thing.

An urban fireworks display on Canada Day has absolutely no meaningful adverse effect on wildlife. If you don't like fireworks and don't care about the cancellation of the event that's fine, but why the need to wrap your position in bogus environmental concern? |

I was listening to the radio on my lunch break today, and they were saying that the decision not to have fireworks was made by City of Calgary bureaucrats, not City Council, and that now City Council is reconsidering due to the hub-bub this is creating.

You care about the environment so you're ok with them cancelling a long standing tradition based on misguided concerns of colonialism and racism? Puhhlease. |
And if anyone is wondering why I'm so concerned with what happens is Calgary, it's because our villiage idiot will out-do yours somehow, and that scares me.
He already got the christmas tree removed from his sight at Churchhill square, and is actively doing his part in slowly changing Merry Christmas to Happy Holidays Some of our most beloved traditions are getting axed one by one and we seem to be ok with it. I'm all for evolving with time, but these things are being done for all the wrong reasons, and that I'm not ok with. Rant over. |
