Huh? Don regularly made bigoted comments about Europeans, Russians, Swedes, Women, “people who come here,” French Canadians, etc.
He specifically targeted people all the time. Homophobic comments, misogynistic comments, basically his whole schtick was standing up for straight, white, old stock Canadian men and putting down everyone else.
He wasn’t “just” nationalistic, and anyone who is pretending he was just a product of his time is being stupid, he was criticized repeatedly for his comments over the past 30 years. There are articles from the 90s of Don’s controversial bigotry. People who think it was ever “OK” just want to excuse their own past and present.
