And the team that played the RedBlacks were the Eskimos. Two teams named after indigenous peoples who still live in Canada and its territories. As far as I know the Canadian people haven’t protested and demanded the names be changed.
Sorry, a blogger friend in Toronto tells me that RedBlack has nothing to do with a description of native peoples in Canada. It’s a name that pays tribute to the men and women who serve Canada. He says it refers to the military and police officers. Wow, that’s even worse to an American lefty. Naming a sports team to honor the military and the police!!!
