Captain George was an English oppressor who took advantage of the native peoples and helped push them off of the land to make room for the europeans. It would be BAD to have a supporters group associated with such a man.
Yeah, but that's the ONLY bad idea associated with this supporters group (P.S. - How many posts will it take for the mods to move this thread to the Philly forum? )
Does the Vancouver forum even have mods? Heck.. Does it even have posters. I'd say 90% of the posts on this forum are non-Whitecap supporters.
It only takes you three hours to get to Seattle? Damn.. Takes three hours just to get across the border some days.
That forum is only used by a small group called the southsiders. There are thousand of whitecaps supporters that need another place to use.
lol. you're joking right? Do you even know anything about BC history or are you just one of those typical liberal whinos with an agenda who thinks we should rename absolutely everything named after a European? The man was widely well known for having GOOD relations with most of the first nations unlike other explorers. The only people he "helped push" away were the Spaniards, so you can thank him that we're not all speaking Spanish here on the west coast.
I wouldn't mind speaking Spanish still this idea is dumb he basically saw the SoB and thought lets copy that but make it George Vancouver.
You dare question our puffy shirt-wearing ability? (It's really so our initials are SoB. Shh, don't tell anyone. I can't think of a good insult for the letters CGVC...but I'm guessing there's going to be some suggestions down here ˅˅˅˅˅)
