Justin Trudeau has not said anything publicly about the firing of Don Cherry. Conservative Leader Andrew Scheer did not call Trudeau a “phoney” or a “fraud” when he sat down with the Prime Minister on Tuesday. While Don Cherry is no politician, his ejection from Hockey Night in Canada is as polarizing and political as the often-nasty campaign that Canadians just endured this fall. “Say whatever you want about Don Cherry — he’s ignorant, he’s a blowhard, he should have been off the air 10 years ago, but nobody, NOBODY has celebrated Canada’s military heroes as consistently and reverently as he has. And while this isn’t a scientifically tested read of the electorate, the kind of people who like Don Cherry are probably not the kind of people who like Justin Trudeau.
