Canadian airline WestJet cancels an entire flight, blames passengers refusing to wear a mask. It was a 19 month old baby, exempt from mandatory mask laws (archive.is)

I propose a new insult. Canadian. Someone who is acting like a Canadian is being the single largest pussy in existence at that very moment.

"We spoke with the crew, OK, and we kind of resolved the mask matter, that was no longer an issue," said an unnamed Calgary police officer while on the plane. "Unfortunately, the behaviour of the rest of the passengers have left the crew feeling unsafe to fly, which is why they've made the decision they have."

Agreed

Probably did those people a favor. I mean if the flight crew are a bunch of snowflakes, I imagine the plane’s mechanics are the same.

There is a reason that certain chans refer to Canadian posters as "a fucking leaf" and "leafposting" is when someone makes a particularly abhorent post.

Agreed, although I do feel bad for the people in the country of Canada who do not act like Canadians. There are plenty of people from Canada who do not behave like complete Canadians. That said, I'm still in favor.

There are Canada-ers and Canadurrs, just like with any group.

Honestly, maybe this is the Bloc in me speaking, but Canadians, the real issue, is they don't act like Canadians. Canadians do not own their past mistakes, instead deflecting to America. Canadians do not own their past accomplishments, viewing them as abhorrent or chauvinistic. There are Canadians who, right now, are (relatively) of sound mind and body, who were alive when Canada was treating natives like the Nazis treated gypsies... That was only four decades ago. Bring it up, and immediately it is "but the Americans-".

Bring up our WW1 and WW2 achievements? Oh, that wasn't us. Bring up our inventions? We can't take credit for the actions of our forefathers. Bring up slavery, despite being the place the slaves fled TO? Oh, suddenly we take 100% credit for not OUR forefathers, but those of entirely different nations. BLM rides strong in the major cities, because those cities were totes built on... slave labor? Maybe of natives or asians, but it's SUCH a good opportunity to feel guilty over something that we won't let something like "facts" get in the way.

So many Canadians have a deep hatred of the concept of "Canada", of national pride and national responsibility. The joke goes "A Canadian is just an unarmed American with healthcare", but I think that joke is too literally true. A Canadian is an American, not a Canadian. There's no nation, every queue is taken from an Amero-centric perspective on one side, or a global-internationalist perspective on the other. Very, very few Canadians are Canadian. They're guilty-feeling Americans, or World Citizens, or both. But they're not Canadian.

That is all Trudeau Sr.'s doing. He started the whole "Multiculturalism is great, Cultural Mosaic" Bullshit. The dude straight hated 80% of the Country and figured his policies would harm the Anglos the most.

That is depressing. How did it get to this point or was it always like this? I find it so strange to have a good country and not feel any pride in it, it goes against human nature. We have pride in our home town even if we no longer live there, we have pride in our high schools accomplishments years after you graduate and so forth, there is nothing wrong with it except if you are a current day globalist.

I saw some people claiming before that surely their new “zero tolerance” policy would have reasonable exceptions.

Don’t let them play games with words. When they say “zero tolerance” take that as meaning zero tolerance, not something else. When they say “defund the police” take that as meaning defund the police. Because at the end of the day, they meant what they said, not the bullshit excuse they came up with afterwards.

It was my understanding that all children under the age of 12 are exempt in all countries.
