Episode Details

Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre endorsed a nomination for hockey legend Don Cherry to the Order of Canada, but the move sparked controversy within his party. Quebec MPs, including Pierre Paul-Hus and Éric Lefebvre, opposed the nomination due to Cherrys past controversial remarks about Quebecers and francophones. Cherry, known for his Hockey Night in Canada career, was fired in 2019 for comments about immigrants and poppies. The nomination remains in limbo as the Order of Canada committee will make the final decision.
