Students today don’t even know who Columbus is. I have asked them. They thought he was an early president.

To my fellow Canadians, Happy Thanksgiving Day! To my fellow Albertans, next Thanksgiving Day, we should be able to celebrate with great thanks to our Maker, the removal of comrade secretary Premier Rachel Notley, from the Premiership. Unfortunately for Canadians, Turd-owe’s departure will be just after Thanksgiving Day 2019.

“Happy Indigenous People’s Day.

“That is what people are saying today...”

I doubt that people are saying that today. Most people still call it Columbus Day, no matter how much the elites try to shove Indigenous People’s Day down our throats.

I don't buy into the PC cultural Marxism crowd who want to sanitize history by calling this something other than Columbus Day.

Happy Columbus Day!

Anniversary of Don Larsen’s perfect game.

After playing the game sporadically on the radio during the afternoon, Sister Jane Agnes allowed some of us who walked a good distance to school to stay. We were grouped around her desk listening to the game on a table radio one student had brought in. Sister realized that history was in the making and didn’t want us to miss out.

They don’t care what it’s called as long as teachers and govt workers get a paid holiday for it.

This is not Columbus Day

Correct, because Columbus didn't arrive in America until October 12, 1492.
