This year for Remembrance season, I wanted to help shed a bit of light on those Canadians who served in wars not typically recognised as 'Canadian wars', but campaigns of Empire which no less involved Canadian efforts.
Toronto's own Lieutenant Alexander Roberts Dunn fought at the Battle of Balaclava (Crimean War) where he participated in the famous Charge of the Light Brigade. During the withdrawal of that impossible charge, he stayed behind and cut down at least four Russian cavalrymen so that two of his fellow Hussars could escape. For his bravery, he would be the fist Canadian to receive the Victoria Cross.
"Cannon to right of them,
Cannon to left of them,
Cannon in front of them
Volleyβd and thunderβd;
Stormβd at with shot and shell,
Boldly they rode and well,
Into the jaws of Death,
Into the mouth of Hell
Rode the six hundred."
"Take up our quarrel with the foe
To you from failing hands we throw the torch
Be yours to hold it high
If ye break faith with us who die
We shall not sleep
Though poppies grow in Flanders Fields"
Don Cherry said nothing wrong and deserved much better.
βYou peopleβ, and some of our own, acting as traitors, disgraced one of the greatest Canadians ever to live.
On Remembrance Day, 11 November 2019, Don Cherry was fired by Sportsnet following a passionate live broadcast in which he urged newcomers to Canada to honour our veterans by embracing the Canadian tradition of wearing the remembrance poppy.
His dismissal sparked widespread controversy. Countless Canadians rallied behind Cherry, while prominent figures in hockey publicly defended his character and challenged the decision to dismiss him.
A man who devoted decades to celebrating Canadian hockey, patriotism and our veterans deserved better.
Thank you, Don. π

It's not enough to have public opinion on our side.
We need to get organized or we get ignored.

We are so close to passing Turkey and Serbia, come on guys.
More against immigration than Iraq and Japan and you're blackpilling?
I know some guys who can help with that. Canada for the Canadians.

Majority of Canadians want fewer immigrants, temporary residents in 2027: Nanos ctvnews.ca/canada/article/maβ¦
Absolutely nothing to do with Canada or Canadians. Take your tribal grievances back where they belong and hash it out at home.
Ridiculous
This week, we remember the thousands of Sikhs brutally murdered across India during 1984.
We honour the men, women and children whose lives were taken and stand with survivors and families still seeking justice.
