herbie Posted August 8 Report Share Posted August 8 You should not go out of your way to be so anti-woke you can't even see how racist and un-Christian you are. Maybe Jesus was too woke for your liking. The very groups you pointed out are probably more Christian than the Cdn average. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dougie93 Posted August 19 Report Share Posted August 19 it seems inevitable that Woke Progressive Canada is going to deem both "British" & "Columbia" to be unacceptable I fully expect that they will at some point officially change the name of the province to something "Indigenous" and my guess is that name will be Skokomish, which is Coast Salish meaning "Big River People" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
herbie Posted August 19 Report Share Posted August 19 (edited) More like Skookumchuck, there's already two places named that and rivers aren't as important as the ocean. So that would be skookum AFAIC. But historically the British bit recognizes Sir James Douglas's monumental and defining efforts to keep the province from being absorbed by the USA. Columbia-Columbian is also commonly used to mean or describe mountains/mountainous. On top of the fact nobody ever talks or mentions renaming the place, so that's why it made the news in the first place. Someone did, so it's newsworthy.
