Change the name from canucks (since it can be sometimes derogatory according to Google...) Just called it Vancouver Hockey Club... no logo... no colour Good idea. I have the perfect logo to get the ball rolling on this very necessary change... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Petey40 Posted December 16, 2020 Share Posted December 16, 2020 (edited) Lol meh this is a stupid non-story from some random historian trying to cause a stir. Isn’t that guy white as well? He doesn’t really have any place to say what is and isn’t cultural appropriation or offensive to indigenous people when they themselves have no issue with it. Grand Chief Stewart Phillip of the Union of B.C. Indian Chiefs said the NHL franchise has a good relationship with local First Nations. “They haven’t taken issue with the Canucks logo, so I have no problem with it,” he said. Even people on this thread that are native are saying they have no issue with it other than that it’s ugly lol The Orca isn’t going anywhere.

Nucksfollower1983 Posted December 16, 2020 Share Posted December 16, 2020 (edited) So does all this mean as a person of Irish descent I can sue the University of Notre Dame for a sweet pay out? Maybe I want some of that sweet lucky charms money too.... I'm feeling particularly offended today.

yes we can nucks Posted December 16, 2020 Share Posted December 16, 2020 Didn't the team adopt the orca logo because the owner at the time was Orca Bay Sports and Entertainment? They are long gone so I would not be upset if we lose the orca. I'm all for going back to the stick in rink on the jersey with the skate logo as shoulder patches. Voila. No more controversy.

Actually they worked on word mark logos, new variations of the skate, variations of Johnny Canuck before deciding on the Orca logo designed with input from both a Haida artist and Trevor Linden.

Popular Post BLU3GR33NBL00D Posted December 16, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted December 16, 2020 Hoping Aquilini digs up something on the talks the organization had with bands of BC in development of the orca logo so this conversation can be put to rest. I think people are too cooped up after this funky year and are looking for problems. 6 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it's good to have the conversation about the appropriation of First Nations art as long as it's respectful and not excessively accusatory in either direction. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
