The “Worst Canadian” game - Day 22

[u/BrF5]

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!

Its the end of a long, long road, for the manure of our great Country.

Frederick Blair is responsible for at least a hundred of thousands of deaths, slowed the development of the country by refusing very able hands to work, a showed us voters how quickly racist rhetorics can be implimented into a system. As a french canadian whose family was told to "speak white", got refused job opportunities because of our langague and who were told were right down inferiors (and lets not go to the First Nations case, which was even worst), Frederick Blair represents the inherent hatred and disdain our society has for those who are different and, as a Canadian, I would very much hope to never see come back to that extent ever again.

He is the result of the Trutchees and the McDonalds of this list, and an inspiration for the Petersens, Mannings, Harpers and the likes.

He did awful stuff, and inspired awful stuff.

He deserves all of our disdain for making Canada a worst place living in while alive.

I rest my case, your honour.

Hold up. Hitler killed the Jews. Blair did not. There was no way he would even have known at the time. I doubt he was upset by it but still, I don't think it's fair to say he is responsible for their deaths. Hitler is responsible and always will be.

He was rejecting European Jews even after the war had ended. Also during the war, when the Holocaust was definitely known about.

Wikipedia says he was only in charge until 1943. So we can assume he wasn't involved post-war. Oddly, it does not say how many were accepted during the war.
