Political correctness gone mad!
I assume I am not the only one who thinks that we have gone too lilly livered?
Blair the other day apologised for Britains part in slavery hundreds of years ago - and campaigners complained he did not go far enough!!
We have a chequered history - as most great (or once great) nations do. WE, the living, are not responsible for what happened hundreds of years ago. We may abhor it, but I, for one, certainly do not think we need to apologise for it.
This Canadian thing is just another example and to my mind belittles the heroes who risked their lives (or paid with their lives) for a just and moral cause.
