[sclitheroe]

Just curious if anyone else heard what I heard on the Fan on Friday, around 4:30pm. Normally, stuff like this doesn't bother me, but the ignorance of the guy on with Rob Kerr was astounding.

They were discussing the idea that maybe Jordan Tootoo was older than he claims, by virtue of the fact that some Native communities don't keep really accurate birth records, and maybe this gave him an advantage in the juniors.

Fair enough.

But then, the guy goes on the say something to the effect of how native women just pop out kids, and let them run wild clubbing baby seals, "or whatever it is they do up there". Kerr suggests he shouldn't be talking like that, and the guy replies that he doesn't care, and go ahead and "sue me".

I was struck not just by how ignorant a comment that was, but the tone of the dude's voice, which seemed to be full of disdain for Native Canadians. He wasn't joking around at that point.

Did anyone else hear this? Comments? Thoughts?
