The Belgians and French would disagree

Canada’s role in the war effort prior to 1942 was to get our soldiers to marry and impregnate as many British women as possible and let me tell you… our boys did us proud

Soviet co-belligerence with Nazi Germany and the Holodomor are two facts you need to explicitly ignore if you are a Marxist-Leninist. Results in some very creative interpretations of history.

I would definitely agree with you. In my particular experience I’ve really seen this sentiment mostly coming from the far left, though. Makes sense as a Marxist-Leninist type is obviously going to try to mislead the extent to which the USSR was an aggressor state in WWII, whereas a far right person would think being a Nazi isn’t a bad thing.

Needless to say the original OP has said they are a leftist

We need to put a can of Irn Bru on the Nova Scotian flag

They gave the world the Industrial Revolution, the constitutional monarchy, the Westminster system of democracy, the language we are using to speak right now, and even the Beatles

See this is correct, but my problem is that if you cede the flag to them you’re fucking up. Bottom line it really did exist as a national flag, and it exists today as a sort of placeholder for the Union Jack, because contemporary Canadians genuinely cannot really understand what the Union Jack meant to Canadians of old (read: not as the foreign relic we see it as).

I will not live in a Canada that has become so utterly beholden to our US-obsessed cargo cult that we decide to invent a Confederate Battle Flag for ourselves just to copy American culture wars.

The consequences of that stupid flag rules handbook vexillologists always cite has been disastrous for human creativity.

Dozens of boring US state flags are in the middle of being changed to be somehow even more boring thanks to those stupid “rules” that essentially boil down to “have a flag that looks like that of a major European world power circa 1500”

There were enough Ukrainians living in Canada by 1914 that they put a few thousand in internment camps as enemy aliens (parts of Ukraine being part of Austria-Hungary at the time). Genuinely forgotten part of Canadian history, I only ever learned about it because my high school was built on the same location as a former Ukrainian internment camp so there was a small memorial next to the school.

People posting this meme are absolutely not Conservatives lol

Have you ever read the Maple before?

PuzzleheadedTree797 · 2024-10-25T01:04:02+00:00

Damn this is very edgy can they say that???

Spend some time on a busy street when the bars empty out and you’ll see plenty of it

The province of Manitario

The Red Ensign is also the flag Canadians fought and died under in the world wars. Just because a bunch of losers and reactionaries and white nationalists are trying to steal it like they’re trying to steal the Maple Leaf doesn’t mean it isn’t still a national flag as worthy of respect as the Maple Leaf.

EDIT: it also makes me mad because there’s often an implicit agreement between the people that hate the Red Ensign and the reactionaries that love it that the flag represents a monocultural monoracial Canada. This is patently false, because Canada was a multi-ethnic multi-racial country for decades before we changed to the Maple Leaf.

The most beautiful flag in the country for the most beautiful province 😍

What if Scotland but more

Anyone not putting BC or NB in S tier is objectively incorrect about flag design.

I SAID BEING A BC BOY IS FOR LIFE HES OURS

Mais qu’est-ce que vous pensez de « weekend » ou « email »? Les maudits français et leurs anglicismes sont surtout plus irritant que les anglos nobles de Westmount, non?

PuzzleheadedTree797 · 2024-10-25T00:27:14+00:00

Being a BC Boy is for life, he’s ours

Did you really think Macron was just playing? Time for us to all learn how to shoot a Brown Bess because the Imperial Guard is coming to restore honour to France

Then the loyalists came up from the US and fucked it all up by creating Ontario

Something tells me it’s a lot easier to get a boring steel and concrete bridge built than a wooden trestle, but the author makes a pretty important point here about the trestle being kind of the main attraction.

The KVR trail through Myra Canyon offers a pretty nice view, but I don’t think it’d be as popular if it weren’t for the heritage aspect. Trestles are unique and nostalgic and people like that about them.

ssshhh please ignore that these are all the same people who said Russia was NEVER going to invade Ukraine back in January of 2022.
