    This isn’t something new for HBC. From what I can see, they’ve has been foreign owned since at least 2006 and have claimed Canadianism hard for the last couple decades.

      I never said it was new, and you can show the class what you are seeing if you wish to use it as evidence to support your assertion.

        You phrased things in a way that can easily be read to infer that this was new for HBC, and you fucking well know it. There’s absolutely no reason to be a smug prick about it.
