🇨🇦 Canadians split on Don Cherry's Order of Canada nomination — those who know who he is, that is

A man who spent decades making hockey watchable for millions gets fired for questioning whether newcomers respect our veterans, and now the ruling class wants to bury him permanently. The numbers reveal the fracture: 47 per cent of Conservatives back Cherry, while Liberals and Bloc voters—many of whom never heard of him or don't care—line up to veto. Quebec leads the charge at 40 per cent opposed, still nursing grievances older than most of the respondents.

This isn't about Cherry. It's about whether Canada will honour its own cultural icons or let them be memory-holed for failing to recite the diversity hymnal. The Governor General's office will almost certainly reject him to avoid Liberal backlash, because standing for something Canadian is now considered too divisive. That's the state of the honours system under this regime.
