“Men don’t wear pistols in Canada!”

The photographic, archaeological & written evidence seems to suggest otherwise.

Don‘t even make me delve into the first legislation against firearms ownership which dominion of Canada implemented and where those laws applied and who they were used against.

Yeah that Heritage Minute annoys me too. Blatant ahistorical propaganda.

[u/Borealbound → u/mischling2543]

I love heritage minutes as much as the next hoser, but yeah

because those things where made by people sitting in studios in downtown toronto and montreal with their own idea about canada.

if they made them in 2026 i have a feeling they would take a lot more "creative liberties" when showing interpretations of canadian history

A 2026 version would say that Canada was founded by Pierre Elliot Trudeau because John A Macdonald was just the leader of a British Colony.

[u/Borealbound → u/mwmwmwmwmmdw]

You are absolutely correct.
