Also, his remarks were inflated to hold meanings that he might not have intended, when he berated “you people” who don’t show the respect (widespread in Canada as in the UK) on Remembrance Day of wearing a poppy. The p.c. media decided that “you people” must be a reference to immigrants but it could include native born “hosers” who choose not to show any respect for the wartime sacrifices.
