Don Cherry has used his Coach's Corner segment to speak about many non-hockey topics over the years, including the evils of drug use and teen suicide. He has also expressed support for Canada's military many times in previous missions, and he encourages people to become organ donors.

The CBC can't get away with simply saying Cherry should stick to hockey. Cherry's sidekick Ron MacLean expressed an anti-war opinion, but the CBC hasn't said that it regrets MacLean's remarks. The CBC has only slammed Cherry.

Simply put, the CBC is funded by Canada's government and supports the government, which is anti-war. They don't want to hear anything else from anybody else. Its credibility is only slightly higher than that of Iraqi TV.
