Alberta

To be blunt, many people haven't actually forgotten the left chanting for the destruction of Canada while tearing down monuments to it's history.

There is absolutely nothing hypocritical about wanting to acknowledge the wrong doings of your country (such as the kidnapping of aboriginal children and the stripping of cultural identity of aboriginal people), removing statues of racist (along with those who actively encouraged and supported said kidnappings), and still being proud to be Canadian (a peace keeping nation that believes all residents have the right to the Charter of Rights and Freedoms).

Those things are not mutually exclusive, and the fact that you think they are says a lot about who you are.

People who have loved Canada the whole time

Oh the same people who endangered thousands of other Canadians by going around maskless during a pandemic, having zero fucks if they infected a senior or an immune suppressed individual? Or are they the people who blocked off roads, preventing businesses from operating and causing an absolute mess everywhere they went? Or maybe you're referring to the ones who attacked fellow Canadians because of how they looked?

What about any of those actions are you proud of? Which of those actions would you deem patriotic and reflects Canada?

don't get swayed in that by social media

Please tell me you're kidding? Not swayed by social media? The whole "freedom convey" shit was literal social media movement.

And this particular moment in our country isn't about some posts on social media; it's about another country's threats to annex our country. This about another country threatening our sovereignty.

You wanna keep picking fights with people who believe in accountability and want to better our country, by all means go for it, but NOT. RIGHT NOW.

Pick this fight when our country isn't being threatened. You wanna go off about being patriotic, maybe act it during a time when it actually matters.
