My first thought was " what the *bleep* for?".
My second thought was, " this article belongs in the woke or cancel section.
My third thought was "well he is a Liberal supporter", but I tossed that one.

And my final thought was "I miss Don".

I only vote in polls about man-made climate change*

*kidding

I watched that happen live and I have to say I had no idea what Ron was talking about. I highly doubt he was trying to be offensive.

Shamelessly stealing this one from twitter: "that ron maclean joke was so uncomfortable I half expected ron maclean to be standing next to him looking sheepish while he made it"

Agreed. Don Cherry lovers need to give it a rest. He is now 87 years old but was a doddering fool for the majority of his broadcasting career.

No, Cherry wasn't a "doddering fool" - what a silly thing to say.
