Ontario does not deserve a major league baseball franchise

On Friday, Douglas Cardinal, an idiot described in Canada’s mushy media as “a Canadian activist,” applied in the Superior Court of Ontario for an injunction to prevent the use of the word “Indians” before Game 3 of the ALCS is played at the Rogers Centre in Toronto. Cardinal brought the injunction against the Indians, Major League Baseball and Rogers, the company that owns the Blue Jays, Rogers Centre and that will broadcast the home games of the Blue Jays during the post-season play. In addition to the Superior Court action, Cardinal has brought complaints to both the Ontario and Canadian human rights commissions. The proceedings are an attempt to prohibit the use of the word “Indians” on Cleveland’s uniforms although the team’s away jerseys have “Cleveland” on them. The application also wants the team’s logo, Chief Wahoo removed, and any mention of the word “Indians” during broadcasts of the game prohibited.
