Oh boy. Someone high up in the WF foodchain didn't do their homework before deciding this policy. Wearing poppies in Canada is a big deal. Fun fact, Canada used to celebrate Thanksgiving the same date as America, but they pulled it 6 weeks forward so it wouldn't crowd the mourning period around Remembrance Day (Nov 11). That's just how serious Canada is about this particular holiday. Although an old hockey commentator got fired last year for ranting about how immigrants don't wear enough poppies, there's widespread support from every section of Canada about wearing poppies and in general paying some respect to the war effort around Remembrance Day. Outside of Don Cherry's rants though, people rarely make a political statement about it. It's just one of those things you do.
