A food company in Canmore is in hot water over a transphobic response to a donation request by Canmore Pride.
“Please keep these sick people away from the children of this community, you should be disgusted with yourselves.” Jeff’s sister, and daughter of the company’s founders Walter and Leonie von Rotz, Chantal von Rotz, said in a post online Tuesday that Jeff has been removed from the company and its operations.
She said the company has taken further action since Tuesday evening, which includes reaching out to the LGBTQ2S+ community to express their most sincere apologies. Canmore’s Mayor Sean Krausert said in a statement online that the town proudly stands in solidarity with LGBTQ2S+ residents and visitors “who make this town a more vibrant and diverse place to call home.”
The Fairmont Hotels at Jasper Park Lodge and Banff Springs said they will no longer work with or purchase from Valbella. Blush Lane and SPUD posted statements saying they have discontinued their relationship with Valbella.
If you’re outraged you’re pro gr00ming kids
Is freedom of expression dead in Alberta ?
From now on Valbella gets all my business.
'WARNING: Story contains transphobic and homophobic content.' JMO, but I think most Canadians can handle this story without crying or getting hysterical.
Scary.
Outrage from 0.00001% of the population. Oh my. However will they survive. Does this mean that they Will they be cancelling their going commando reading days to kids? Or no more strip teases for cash in front of kids.
Pfft nothing gonna happen. Could have tactfully refused but who cares? Rudeness isn’t a crime. Look to twitter. Grow the hell up if your offended.
The left doing their thing. Wiping out a whole business because someone dares disagree. These other woke company’s are not enlightened but are hypocrites. Outrage? The demands from this whole group is getting outrageous. Live and let live but don’t force it on everyone.
I mean, that community hasn't exactly done anything to further their cause lately. They are supporting some pretty wild business with petitioning to allow children to decide if they're ready for hormone treatment and the myriad of other crap that goes with it. They lost support
Donate or else!!
Oh no. They kowtowed to the woke mob. Too bad. Your apology won't be enough BTW.
From the article it seems that other organizations are doing most of the protesting. Also it was only one,one man who made the comments and he has been removed. I can't tell if the organizations protesting are just protecting their bottom line?
They love to pretend to be offended. It’s actually just the response they eagerly want to get so they can publicize it with the help of complicit media
Pop Quiz: One of the two parties involved in this story made their personal views known privately to the other. The 2nd party made an attempt to publicly humiliate and marginalize someone, with the enthusiastic help of the National Post. Which is which?
Although his comments were disgusting, is it the place of a CBC journalist to be bragging on Twitter that she called the company's customers and got thousands of dollars in business cancelled?
Amazing that it took the founders 40 years to build a business, then one email from an ignorant and hateful son to him to crash it all down. Hopefully, a better business will rise from this, and that the homophobe has a nice life living in a van down by the river.
I’m not outraged.
I think the whole country was outraged!
