  1. Booze replaces God. Nope. Not a cultural collapse. And definitely NOT a war on Christmas and Christians. Right?

  2. And the “mythical” war on Christmas rears its ugly head again.

    Mythical because that’s what the left said the last time: “Ha, ha, ha, don’t be silly, there’s no war on Christmas”.

    Well it’s back, and this time they won’t deny it, instead the “woke” mob will defend the war on Christmas as being “inclusive” while demonizing the word Christmas as hateful, Islamophobic, racist, misogynist, intolerant, exclusive…have I left anything out? Oh yeah, transphobic, homophobic, anti-science, radical fundamentalist, extreme right wing, fascist, Nazi…I’m sure I’ve missed a few.

    1. Dirtman,
      You missed “traditional,” that time-honoured, long fought for legacy that is now hated by ignorant haters and destroyers of Western Civilization.

  3. Our masters are not about to abolish gift-giving at the end of the year. It’s too profitable and too reliable a way to keep people in debt-peonage.

    What they are determined to do at any price is to blot out the Name of the King of Israel.

    1. At least everyone with Down Syndrome I’ve ever met was a lovely person without even the hint of a mean streak. Journos on the other hand…

      1. I think the CBC should focus some positive attention on their cadre of journalists who have Down Syndrome. As a crown corporation, they should take the lead in this type of initiative. They shouldn’t continue relegating their talent who have down syndrome to the menial tasks of broadcasting Canada’s cultural diversity.

        Recognition of their on air talent would be a start.

      2. “My younger son is ‘Down syndrome,’ which means he is a member of a tribe that is now usually murdered in the womb. Yet also, surprisingly, a tribe which by its nature, is understood to be innocent and kindly. This year, through my various ‘ischemic events,’ I have perhaps had a small, partial experience of how my son finds the world; a new understanding of how plainly he assimilated Christ from our conversations; of the horror with which he learnt of the Crucifixion; but too, the incomprehensible simplicity of the Everlasting Life. He has, or course, a genius for understanding things that my cleverness would put beyond me.”

  4. If it isn’t a “Christkindlmarkt”, I’m not going.

    How does the GTA so consistently keep coming up with more reasons for me to avoid it and spend my money and time elsewhere?

  5. Why not call it something REALLY meaningful, like LGBTQPOCMAP Village.

    Yes, the MAP stands for Minor-Attracted Person, lest we forget.

  6. A few s ago I was cashier at our local drug store. During the Christmas Season, I wished EVERYONE going through, MERRY CHRISTMAS. Calgary is becoming a multicultural city but in the store on Centre Street, no one offered a nasty comment about this. Most answered with “Merry Christmas” in return. None of this Happy Holidays crap.

    And a very Merry Christmas to everyone!

  7. Has any Muslim complained about Christmas? Muslims I know simply don’t care,some even exchange gifts. Lots of Sikhs I know celebrate Christmas because they like any excuse to get together with family. I’ve never met a Jew who was bothered by Christmas. Bahai’s I know celebrate Christmas.

    So, wtf are the people who cause the gutless to change the name of Christmas? It ain’ t minorities. Surely it couldn’t be bitter LGBTQ2@%%etc., etc. activists, could it?

    OSF, thanks for that update.I thought MAP was a map, until now.

    1. Good point. A number of years ago, Kitchener decided to call their Tree a ‘Holiday Tree’ (to be inclusive). The local Muslim organisation demanded it be called a Christmas Tree as they didn’t want people thinking they were intolerant. The City sheepishly renamed the tree.

      I used to be a member of the Mississauga YMCA, which was open 365 days a year. It was usually busy on Christmas morning and almost every year, the first person to come up to me to shake my hand and wish me a Happy Christmas was a Sikh. One year I happened to be near when a couple of Sikh friends greeted each other, first with a traditional greeting (hands together and a gentle bow) quickly followed by a handshake and an enthusiastic “Happy Christmas”. Never had an issue with Sikhs.

    2. Nope – all the paranoid-conspiracy-theorist-Nazi-fundamenatlist-white™ folks who suggested the legitimization of pedohphila was coming have now been proved right. MAP is a thing, and I learned about here at SDA.

  8. // I guess mentioning Christmas in Toronto is Islamophobic or something. //

    A bizarre interpretation.
    As your link makes clear the Toronto Christmas Market has been cancelled.
    Just as many others will be.

    The Distillery Winter Village https://thedistillerywintervillage.com/details
    is mainly a shopping event, in the “distillery district” [adjacent to the Gardiner Expressway]
    The event image has a sign including Christmas, so it’s OK for you to go.

  9. The only minority group that has a problem with Christmas is the atheists. And they can go to hell if they can find it.

  10. The scene in heaven …

    Saint Peter to God … “I think we’ve lost Toronto.”

    God … “High fives all around, it’s a start.”
