I mean, Vancouver has had a few actual riots. Mostly over hockey games and Axel Rose being a dickhead.

Wait there’s an Axel Rose riot in Vancouver too? There’s one in Montreal as well!

I have some questions, 1) Who is Axel Rose, 2) Why are we pissed at him and 3) Where the hell is the pitchfork guy??

Québec Sexy girls, need a Quebec sexy boy… (inbefore you downvoted me… This is indeed the same Patrick Cloutier as the infamous photo.)

TBF it really fucked him up, he regretted being part of this, did a bunch of cocaine got dishonorably discharges, ended up doing porn (the above clip), and later joined the Coast Guard (a civilian department) where he spends a lot of his time delivering supplies to isolated First Nations…

Oka was the first time I saw how little the public hears about the actual situation. Because, really, wow.

Are you lost?

The post was a meme in the meme community. OP is saying “huurrr Canadians so polite”. That’s not a new trope.

I’m pretty sure the riots in Ottawa that needed to be broken up by the military, is still pretty fresh in everyone’s mind, since it happened a few years ago during COVID. And yes, there’s controversy about how much of a “riot” it actually was, and whether the force used was excessive or an over reach; but none of that is the point.

This is a joke sir.

I saw an excellent video exploring the idea of Relegation and (a replacement for) the NHL. It was excellent and I hope, by commenting this, it will encourage someone who still has the link to-hand to post that link here.

I swear to God Vancouver had the absolute most shit luck this playoffs. They were my west team 100%, but the hockey gods said nay. Fortunately, Canadians respect the hockey gods and will not riot.

You do realize Vancouver has rioted 2 out of 3 times after losing the cup on game 7?

Yeah, that wasn’t the hockey gods. Gotta riot. Both your goalies going down, Boeser having fucking blood clots are just hockey gods fucking with you, and it’s not a rip table offense unfortunately.
