Ya in one of the segments the guy said "The CN Tower and the Skydome are the penis and vagina of toronto" BTW anyone see how everyone overeacted by Triumph the comic dog. Triumph made fun of the french several times while all of his comments were true. Now every fackin politician is trying to say how bad it is. Hes a facking INSULT dog and the french do stink. I hate all politicians im beginning to think that our politicians are stupider then Mr. Bush in the US. |

my views on the french thing: -french people as a whole take things way too seriously because they think they are "special" in Canada because they are a distinct minority, but so are chinese, vietnamese, russians, italians, germans, jamaicans, south fricans, malaysians, etc. (i hope you get my point) -french canadians have always said things against english canadians (rene levesque beleived that english canadians were the cause of quebec's problems (much like hitler and the jews)), and rarely has an english canadian said anything about that being bad and stuff, but when it happens the other way around french canadians start saying that they are hated in canada and that they should separate -i also think that someone should be able to say something he/she wants because as this is a democracy we can say what we want. the comments were not inciting violence or action against french canadians one more thing (you might have heard this): you know the comment don cherry made about only french canadians and europeans wearing the visor, that is actually true (the high, high majority of hockey players who wear the visors are european and french canadians. i have nothing against french canadians i just believe they should not be treated specially in canada. thanks for allowing my rant to come out, ive been wanting to say this for a long time bye;. |

If you wanna read a great speech about stuff like that, read this speech by a former NRA president...it's so good. http://olympia.fortunecity.com/kickbox/377/infoculturalwar.htm#top If you think political correctness has gone way out of hand to the point where people aren't even allowed to say anything non-sterilized, you'll love this speech. |

well the french canadians were the first early people to arrive on canada (not including the natives, who don't get anything for their troubles but gas-sniffing kids), and so they do feel they have some right. although, i think, remembering back from history, that after the british beat the french some french people stayed in canada to live and defy the new government. therefore, the british government had to compensate some way for these people who wouldn't get out of their country. and then french-canadians are all angry because they've never really gotten respect (although one could argue they weren't entitled to any after losing the war). still, triumph was mean. that stuff he said was almost borderline racism. i don't think you'd see triumph go to new york and start calling black people the N-word and trying to play basketball with them would you. |

Ok, so he is the "Insult Dog". Remember that his producer writes his lines, and that he is not actually making it up himself...after all, he's a puppet. If you wanna say that it's ok because that's his name, think of it like this; if, say, David Letterman made a puppet called Bob the Racist Horse, and then Bob said something racist, would it be ok since he's the Racist Horse? |

Alright, it's not a matter of individual offence; I've never seen it. It's saying society condones that kind of behaviour if mainstream television is allowed to broadcast stuff like that. Negative reinforcement is used to make sure it doesn't happen anymore. It's like with little kids, if you don't say something is not ok to do, it's like a go-ahead to do it for them. It's french people right now, but what happens when it's your racial or religious denomination? If you're the police chief, and there's too many murders in your city, you don't just say f* that s* and move away. Crappy analogy, but whatever, you should be smart enough to get the idea. |

I'm white so technically that probly wont happen lol I get your point. But i didnt think what he said was too harsh. He didnt make fun of french that much. Like ya he suggested some stereotypes like smelling and surrendering but he didnt bash their whole country and theyre beleifs. |

Well doesn't sound so bad...and sometimes censoring racism gets out of hand...read the speech, it's good. |

Wow that really shows how America is paranoid about racism. Anything that even sounds racist they have to censor. |

canada censors way to much also, the whole don cherry thing is turning the cbc paranoid. if everyone is talking about me, i was trying to be racist, i was stating my opinion on things that i have seen/heard/experienced. french canadians are always saying "racist" things about english canadians anyways. |

Don cherrys comments were true nyways. He may be an idiot but hes right. Europeans all wear visors because they play less physical games and european players are smaller and most of them are weaker then many of the candian players |

Pshh, don't even go there. If you wanna start from back then, then basically the Native Americans were here first. Or you could say since people supposedly originated in Africa, the first people over were Africans... Also, the only revolution would be on compsci.ca, and what does Hacker Dan need a facade for? He's already Big Brother and our fearless dictator anyways. No conspiracy here. |
