Yeah...not super impressed with The Legion on this. Mr. Critchley's comments sum it up well
Quote:
Steve Critchley, a retired veteran who joined the legion in 1978 but has since let his membership lapse, said he felt "frustrated and hurt" when he learned how the organization had supplanted Wounded Warriors Canada.
He said the legion was acting like "a schoolyard bully," in his view.
"The legion is claiming they own all images of the poppy? That's like saying the legion owns the Christmas tree. It's gotten to the point of just simply being ridiculous," he said.
"This is painful to see what the legion has done and how they act now," Critchley added.
"It's not the organization that I or my grandfathers were a part of."
