Excellent. Let those self-righteous idiots learn. The same ratings disaster happened to ESPN in 2017, after they to decided to become a Leftist propaganda network. The people are fighting back.

Hockey Night in Canada ratings plummet since Don Cherry’s firing

By The Post Millennial, December 25, 2019:

According to a new report from the Toronto Sun’s Brian Lilley, the ratings for Hockey Night in Canada have declined sharply since the firing of Canadian icon Don Cherry.

Lilley writes, “in the two weeks following Cherry’s dismissal the eastern broadcast of Hockey Night in Canada failed to make the Top 30 TV shows ranked by Numeris.

That means the premier hockey game in Canada failed to draw as many viewers as NCIS: New Orleans, one of two NCIS shows in the top 30.

It also failed to replace Chicago Fire and Chicago Med.”

Lilley pointed out that “the most recent ratings available show Hockey Night in Canada down more than half a million viewers from their peak earlier this year. The December 13 main game drew just 810,000 viewers compared to 983,000 for the same weekend in 2018.”

The Numeris numbers are as follows:

October 5: 1247
October 12: 1364
October 19: 1150
October 26: 1102
November 2: 989
November 9: 1027
November 16:n/a
November 23:n/a
November 30: 1053
December 7: 822
December 14: 810

in a wildly unpopular move, Sportsnet fired Cherry on Remembrance Day after he criticized new Canadians for not wearing the poppy to honour veterans.

Cherry has since launched his own podcast that is one of the most popular in Canada.

The word “racist” is an anti-White slur.

It means: Shut up Whitey! Accept your replacement! Open borders and diversity for you, ethnic nationalism for me!

Self preference and preservation (‘racism’) is accepted as healthy and normal in literally every non-White (90%) community and country across the globe. Whites (10%) are uniquely disallowed.

Racist is another word that has lost any real meaning.
Any objection to the liberal agenda if you are not a minority make you a racist.

The biggest problem with MINORITIES is they THINK they are the MAJORITY because they make the most noise, so if they are wise, they won’t tick off the REAL MAJORITY or their minority will shrink even further.

But, we all know the MINORITY is never wise. IF they were, they would walk softly and carry that big stick like THE MAJORITY DOES. After all, THAT IS EXACTLY HOW DONALD J. TRUMP WON THE PRESIDENCY, isn’t it?

Trust me, as the minorities become the majority they will still want to be treated like a minority.
You have to treat ALL PEOPLE EQUALLY or you will entrench selective justice as we are seeing.
It will become the unquestioned de facto standard.

Minorities want the same things theyd deprive you of if they were the majority.

Racist is a term used by liberals when they are losing an argument.

Doesn’t matter what the ratings are Deep State PC swamp rats run all the major league sports leagues MLB NFL etc. They get billions from TV cable networks that collect 200 dollars plus a month from tens of milions of conservative zombies. Stop paying and cancel cable tv or keep paying for the destruction of your nation. There are dozens of networks that have horrible ratings but they all collect billions from tens of millions of “conservatives” every month. And don’t take your kids to Disney another Swamp rat organization dedicated to the trans gender anti family agenda.

Canaduh is a very liberal country, to the point where’s it’s almost communist. The people there are brain washed, and they vote for people like this punk Trudeau into office. The few Canadians that have a brain, have to suffer the consequences, for the morons that vote these charlatans into office. In this day in age, you speak the truth, be prepared to pay.
