      This has been a 70 years long struggle in Canada, they’ve been whitewashing the Galizien division for at least that long. This is the first time ANYTHING happened of any consequence (the speaker resigning and some discourse on the Grits) to the promotion of nazi shit here and this is the pushback.

          I’m glad the radical left hasn’t done any permanent damage to bronze statues, like using nitric acid to eat the copper.
