The short version of this story is Canada is controlled by venomous snowflakes who don’t believe in free speech and have thin skin similar to wet tissue paper.

The even shorter version requires them to be slapped silly.

Picked up a fella hitchhiking. Apache I believe. He noticed the bagged bottle of wine and asked ‘what’s that’. ‘Oh nothing’ I said ‘just a bottle of wine I got for my wife ‘. ‘Good trade’ he said.

That was a racist joke. Back In The Bronx as a kid in the 50s where I came from all different races and nationalities would see who could ‘ rank out’ the guy from a different heritage, best. We had fist fights, but usually not over jokes like that.

And to think I used to think Canada was a pretty cool neighbor to the north.

But screw Canada and their fascist PC culture.

It's no wonder they elected that man boy Trudeau. He's the epitome of their backward thinking culture.

Wow, you can’t even order an Eskimo Pie in Canada (spelled C-eh, N-eh, D-eh). Somehow Inuit Pie doesn’t sound the same.

A fiend of mine bought gloves for his wife when he was in Alaska. They could never get the smell out and wound up tossing them.

Canada is further down the path to total speech control than we are.

The headline is fake news.

“Can you smell him?” is the offensive part of what was said, not the word “Eskimo.”

When I lived in Anchorage (early 80s), the drunks passed out on the hills near 4th Street were all called “Skimoes”..

Los Angeles has tar lakes. And Kenny G is probably still popular in Utah.

Fun note: There are no trolleys to dodge in LA. The Brooklyn baseball club (that’s the official name) had been nick-named, the ‘trolley-dodgers.”

So I guess this is offensive in Canada.
