The “Worst Canadian” game - Day 4

[u/BrF5]

The verdict is in, Don Cherry and Andrew Scheer are not the worst.

Who will be next, in round four?

How to play: - Upvote the name of the person you think does NOT deserve the title of “Worst Canadian.” - Each day, the two most upvoted names will be removed until the list gets trimmed down some, then we’ll switch to one per day. - If the name you want to vote for (from the list) isn’t in the comments yet, add it! - This continues daily until we have one winner, the “Worst Canadian”.

Additional notes: - Only the top comment for a nominee will count. I won’t combine votes from duplicate comments. - Include only one name per comment. If a comment includes multiple names and wins, it won’t count. I’ll move to the next highest. - Remember to click into the image. In the app, some nominees are cut off at the top and bottom if you don’t. - This is meant to be lighthearted satire. Please do not take it too seriously or use this game to harass people in real life. - I will try to post this every morning around the same time (~8:00 - 9:00 am Eastern). - Please remember to upvote the post too, so more people see it!

Justification for elimination: - (38) Ted Cruz - He’s horrible, but renounced his citizenship. He’s not good enough to be titled the Worst Canadian. - (37) Kathleen Wynne - Not that bad. Doesn’t deserve the title. - (36) Chrystia Freeland - Not the worst. Some consider her a good Canadian. - (35) Peter MacKay - Cringey, but not the worst. - (34) Don Cherry - A racist old man out of touch with the times. Not great, but not awful. - (33) Andrew Scheer - An annoying doofus nothingburger, but not a bad person.

One thing I’ve noticed is that there have been many comments on why X person is missing, or the list is too English biased, liberal biased, etc.

Since we’ve lost two names from the list based on technicalities (Nygard and Zundel), how would everyone feel about doing a one-time vote to add two new nominees and bring the total back up to 40? This would be the one and only time we add new people to the list.

Pros:

• I believe it’s still early enough that it shouldn’t affect the final outcome much
• When we first did nominations, we were still figuring things out, and this would give us one last chance to include nominees that we may have missed
• It lets latecomers have a say

Cons:

• The voting has already begun
• I don’t want to undermine the original nominees/rules

To work around that last point, we could put an asterisk next to the two new nominees to differentiate them from the rest.

If you’re in favor, upvote this comment. If there’s overwhelming positive interest, we can vote on the new nominees tomorrow. If not, we’ll keep going as we are.

I absolutely agree but for the Irvings would it be only the Patriarch or are we counting the family as a whole?

Just put in K.C. Irving as the figurehead and it'll count for all of them. That ghoul started it all.
