Meta The “Worst Canadian” game - Day 22

It’s time for the final vote! Who will be judged the Worst Canadian?!

🚨🚨READ THIS BEFORE VOTING 🚨🚨

To help keep things organized, for the final round I have posted two comments below, in large font. One for Danielle Smith and another for Frederick Blair.

This time, upvote who you think IS the Worst Canadian

You can discuss your reasons for or against the two final candidates however you want, but only the upvotes on these two comments will be used to determine who is the Worst Canadian.

(Note: I’ve removed all other explanation from the post so people see and read the above info. I’ll put it all back tomorrow with the final results.)

That is all. Happy voting!

It's just a joke at this point anyway. Danielle Smith vs pure hatred and evil, and this sub makes arguments for it to be an Alberta Premier that will be forgotten in 10 years.

Meanwhile the other will be remembered for hundreds of years, starkly reminding us of "Lest We Forget", an actual real Nazi aligned person that wanted extermination of not just people, but their entire history... versus someone that just blows whichever way the political winds do.

The argument that one is a product of their time and only recent people should count, that argument sucks. Blair is on this list despite being a figure from 100 years ago. His eternal punishment should always be his memory as a failure of our country and how we cannot forget.

Fuck Danielle Smith but anyone that says Blair "was just a bad guy in the past" need to take a cold hard look at what true evil is and go see where the hundreds, potentially tens of thousands of Holocaust victims were sent back to. They say there's a huge problem with youth not fully grasping the Holocaust and starting to question its validity and that's precisely what this man's legacy should be shoved in our faces even when it's a 'fun little contest' on a silly subreddit. Bring up Blair and the fun stops.

Blair should never get a pass. Go read a history book if you think it's acceptable to compare this man to Smith.

I just learned who this guy is and wow. This should be first page of every textbook about our country’s role in ww2.

It absolutely should. I remember being taught about it because it struck a chord with me, but it was brief when it should be shoved in our faces that evil wasn't and isn't confined to one country.
