That's it, I've seen enough. 30 more apolitical monuments to fascism in Toronto, stat

[–] WokePalpatine@hexbear.net 13 points 5 days ago* (last edited 5 days ago) (3 children)

They're gunna to build a Victims Of Fascism monument in Ottawa and that Nuremberg trial guy who lived in Ottawa for some time will be on it.

Edit: Oh yeah, it was Joachim von Ribbentrop. Duh.

young Ribbentrop lived at various times in Grenoble, France and London, before travelling to Canada in 1910.[10]

He worked for the Molsons Bank on Stanley Street in Montreal, and then for the engineering firm M. P. and J. T. Davis on the Quebec Bridge reconstruction. He was also employed by the National Transcontinental Railway, which constructed a line from Moncton to Winnipeg. He worked as a journalist in New York City and Boston but returned to Germany to recover from tuberculosis.[11] He returned to Canada and set up a small business in Ottawa importing German wine and champagne.[12] In 1914, he competed for Ottawa's Minto ice-skating team and participated in the Ellis Memorial Trophy tournament in Boston in February.[12][13]

When the First World War began later in 1914, Ribbentrop left Canada, which, as part of the British Empire, was at war with Germany, and found temporary sanctuary in the neutral United States.

The monument was already built. They opted not to put any names on it in the end, because an overwhelming amount of the names on the list were revealed to be problematic figures when given even the most basic of inspections.

Canada is no different than the US in many respects from what I've seen. If the two joined as 1 country it would be hard to tell the difference really.

Canada is just America's Austria.

you leave behind your animosities

Tell that to the First Nation people you timbits eater

[–] Riffraffintheroom@hexbear.net 17 points 5 days ago* (last edited 5 days ago)

You misunderstand him. Immigrants are to leave their animosities behind in order to make room for their new animosity towards First Nations, francos, and Newfoundlanders.
