Comforting to know that some things in this world never change. That's because they have never had a proper logo or identity from the get go. Look at the knights and the new Seattle logos. Both winners and top selling merchandise the past years. The orca makes no sense whatsoever. The team is named after a fictional lumberjack. The whale reminds us of their past mistakes like the Messier signing(worse free agent pick up!) Gretzky getting shafted but the previous owner when he was gonna sign a contract the following morning via Pat Quinn to center Mogilny and Bure, Bert clubbing Steve Moore, etc, needs to go now finally. Out of here, later haters! 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hogs & Podz Posted December 15, 2020 Share Posted December 15, 2020 3 hours ago, StealthNuck said: It's pretty easy. Cultural appropriation is when a dominant culture appropriates from a disadvantaged minority culture. It can be seen as exploitation of the minority culture and traditions. If the Canucks logo was made (and used) without any consultation with local indigenous community, that's likely appropriation. The scale and effects of that are up for discussion. On that note, everyone needs to remember this is a discussion. The logo hasn't been immediately 'cancelled' because of a few twitter posts. Personally, I'd love to see the Canucks reach out and request the orca be redesigned by a local indiginous artist (Salish?). Regardless of the reason... I'm okay with this. The logo could look even more menacing and stylistic with true west coast haida art. Wow.... Unraveling all the wrongs of the world... A reckoning from biggest to smallest. Lots to process, try to stay open everyone. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ESP77 Posted December 15, 2020 Share Posted December 15, 2020 Why is it always with these things it's no problem for decades, then ONE person complains and then the company caves and changes everything. Completely absurd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Nave Posted December 15, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted December 15, 2020 I love the Orca. I like that it's a tribute to First Nations art. Now we're complaining about cultural appropriation, but in the future we'll be complaining that First Nations aren't getting representation. 2 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

D- It's a simple discussion, no company has caved and nothing has changed yet. E- Hyperbole. I would love it if you could introduce me to the world you live in where individual people are going around making companies cave and change everything. Sounds nice. 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What I find ironic is the generation(s) that take most offense are the younger ones these days. Wonder how many white people have spent the time to talk to older First Nations folks to see how they really feel. Making it their cause when it’s so far past their cause it’s extremely ironic that those same fans who love the orca and grew up with it could become the same fans who see it leave because some future generation decides it was in poor taste. Cowboys and Indians and War were the main games kids played in gen x and baby bombers. Made up play ... that’s what we did. And loved playing any side. Make wrong is about power, greed and money as much as anything else. Hope folks wake up and just cut it out. Bet they might re-consider some of their own hypocrisy if they are going to lose something they thought was ok... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aGENT Posted December 15, 2020 Share Posted December 15, 2020 It's an awful, awkward looking logo. Looks like a constipated whale. If this is the impetus to get rid of it finally, I'd be thrilled. Stick in rink officials with black skate thirds please. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whorvat Posted December 15, 2020 Share Posted December 15, 2020 Waiting for people to be outraged over the Minnesota Vikings. . . . oh wait.... As previously mentioned in this thread, the logo should be changed back to the skate because the Orca is ugly, not because its 2020 and everyone is offended by everything Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goal:thecup Posted December 15, 2020 Share Posted December 15, 2020 The goal is to win The Cup. The aggressive black, red, yellow, white was the result of trying to use sports psychology to gain an edge. Any attempt to increase the chances to win The Cup are ok with me. Despite the reasons some people did not like those uniforms, the team had some success, which might be partially attributable to the new colours. I could give a flying "V" if they wear negligees, just win The Cup! 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trebreh Posted December 15, 2020 Share Posted December 15, 2020 I'm ok if we are forced to change the logo gives us an excuse to make a new Johnny Canuck Logo and possibly different colour scheme or go back to the skate jersey (which i like) full time.
