The Toronto Suns Joe Warmington was the first to report the news on Monday, indicating he had been told by Cherry that he had been fired. Cherry is reported to have told Warmington that he was hurt to be fired today of all days, given it is Remembrance Day.
...had singled out new immigrants in Toronto and Mississauga, Ont., where he lives, for not honouring Canadas veterans and dead soldiers. You people you love our way of life, you love our milk and honey, at least you can pay a couple bucks for a poppy or something like that, Cherry said Saturday night. These guys paid for your way of life that you enjoy in Canada, these guys paid the biggest price.
Wow, that is a toxic rant. /sarc
We lived in the same town as Don Cherry. In 25 years the demographics of the city went from primarily European to 46% Indian (Punjabi in particular), with a planned 200,000 more coming by 2037 according to “the plan.” In 2018, our family attended remembrance day in the city square where 2000 ordinary Canadians gave 2 hours of their time in the freezing cold to honour our fallen. The multicultural doctrine of the left would predict all cultures would attend. I can tell you that at best there where 20 or so indians in attendance (mostly city employees who were paid to be there). Half our city is now low quality South Asian immigrants who are profoundly uninterested in our country. They’re here either on work visas, or scammed their way in as a first step get hordes of their elderly relatives in the door for free healthcare.
Don Cherry is absolutely right. We moved when we finally admitted the truth to ourselves: We didn’t want to be invisible minorities is a foreign speaking Canadian city.
Not anymore, it doesn't. The left destroys everything it touches.
I used to play, I was a goalie. I remember Gump Worsley.
The invaders love what they could never build themselves.
These are low-trust, economic invaders who don't give a damn about the natives.
In their opinion, the natives are just a means to the good life. The invaders have no allegiance to the western nations, only to their bellies.
If they get the numbers to outvote the heritage population, they will, and they will convert the nation into the sh!thole from which they came.
How can they sustain that which they could never build in the first place?
See South Africa as the prime example
I remember Don Cherry playing for the Rochester Red Wings back in the mid-sixties. Gerry Cheevers was their goalie at the time. Back in the early 90’s, when I went to Canada to search for my family history on my mother’s side, I discovered that Tim Horton was a cousin of mine.
Bullshit
Geez Louise, has this idiot ever heard of the modern American NFL???
DANG!
The good pay a high price for their goodness. He said exactly the truth but truth died long ago in the western world.
No mention of any patriotic Canadians coming to his defense......of course that doesn’t mean none did.
The truth hurts.
I’m late to the post (stupid location shoot overseas)..
Back in 2003, when the world (and canadians) were burning America flags because of the Iraq War,
and still remember how the MSM fed the world that Dubya was evil, the USA is evil and our soldiers in Iraq are evil? It was amplified 50 times when you were not in the USA..
Don Cherry went on Hockey Night in Canada wearing an American tie and told the viewers during the 1st intermission to knock off the anti-American crap and LECTURED the viewers that Americans are good people and they should not be doing stupid sh*t as we are great neighbors and they protect us. etc.
I remembered this very well. It was the Maple Leafs vs the Habs.
Don Cherry is a friend of America and old school. He calls like it is and may have accelerated my move to America...

It seems Rogers Sportsnet has pissed off the greatest defenseman ever.
Bruins legend Bobby Orr joined Ordway, Merloni & Fauria on Thursday as part of Christian Faurias 25 for 25 drive to raise money for the American Diabetes Association.
Orr, who played for Don Cherry with the Bruins for two seasons beginning with the 1974-75 campaign, was asked to weigh in on the controversial firing of the Coachs Corner host, whos affectionately known around hockey as Grapes.
I know Grapes better than anybody. Hes not a bigot and hes not a racist. This guy is the most generous caring guy that I know. What theyve done to him up there is disgraceful, it really is, Orr told the guys.
