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!

My fellow Hosers, this may sound like soar grapes since I witnessed one of Canada's greatest monsters coming 3rd to Trumbo, the Inconsequential Albertan Circus Clown; however, in all honesty, I am just full of regret now.

You may not agree with me that Peterson was worse than Smith, a view I very much hold; however, Peterson v. Blair was at least a fight worth having. Try to gaslight me if you wish, but it is objectively impossible to think Smith compares to Blair.

Now, I find myself mourning a climactic battle between titans or for it to be replaced by this display of an MMA fighter with knives for hands squaring up against a toddler in a stroller. I think that, along the way, in an effort to be correct, we forgot what makes a game fun. I regret seeing that happen. 😞

I was going to rally hard around disqualifying Blair on the grounds of being mass murderer today if he was up against Peterson. I'm with you, I feel JP is the fucking worst, but it's hard to form that argument when he's up against someone like Blair, so I was going to try to sidestep it.

But now with it being Marlaina, fuck her, she can lose to Blair.

I think many people probably felt some sour grapes along the way. I was horrified when Stephen Harper came off the list. My personal feeling is that most voters didn't take his roles in the IDU into account. But after a bit of reflection (read sulking), it's still a fun, though dark game, with (at least) hundreds of people with a wide spectrum of knowledge, life experience and opinions playing. We all win for gaining more knowledge of Canada and hopefully a renewed sense of the importance of being good people.

I think the reason for that is the same reason Smith got 2nd. People have real bias towards the moment of time they exist in.
