I've seen a few of those red paper poppies here and there and I realized that November 11th is coming. That's the day when the empty-headed war-mongers dress up in funeral formal and go to war memorials and try to look solemn and grave while ignoring the fact that their careers are a direct contradiction to the ceremony they're attending.
Veneration for veterans? The best one for that was stephen harper. The complete intellectual failure and the pants-pissing coward who infamously nickeled and dimed wounded veterans (sadistically) and shared the psychiatric records of their ombudsman.
Anti-war? Our current prime minister, the air-head narcissist Justin Trudeau, is aiding and abetting a genocide in Palestine. Way to go Justin! The Canadian soldiers who were killed or wounded or traumatized fighting the genocidal nazi regime can now be said to have helped achieve the victory of Canada so that Canada could go on to support genocides it approves of. Also, with his shit-for-brains total support for everything that Israel is doing against Palestine, Lebanon and Iran, and with everything that NATO has been doing to provoke Russia, he is well on his way to making sure that this country did its stupid part to cause World War III.
