Feeding a Canadian after midnight is bound to lead to all sorts of human rights violations.

Some people biatching on blogs is now news? Stay classy, National Post.

The real outrage is that I wasn't made aware of this until just now.

So "Chicken Chow Mein" is now a human right?

/The mind. It boggles.
//I predict that this will become an example of how a small vocal minority ruin it for the vast majority
///democracy does not work

I thought this was a very cool thing for the guy to do, cost him like half a million. I would have gone for it but I'm not the kind of douchebag willing to stand in line for four hours just to save $15.

When someone demonstrates extreme generosity as a thank you for their citizenship and success in this country, there are bound to be a few extremely petty self-serving morons popping up to denounce it.

Don't like it? Open your own free buffet at your house to people who AREN'T Canadian citizens. You'll show 'em.

You lousy cork-soakers. You have violated my fargin rights. Dis somanumbatching country was founded so that the liberties of common patriotic citizens like me could not be taken away by a bunch of fargin iceholes... like yourselves.

WAHHHHHHH, EH!

/feels shame
//redflagdeals is usually teh awsum

There are three groups of idiots here:
1) The press for reporting this kind of blog drivel
2) The sandy vaginas who are complaining that a company giving away free meals is somehow violating their rights.
3) The people who waited in line for 6 hours on a beautiful day for a plate of MSG and Chicken Balls.

Don't feed the trolls.

so odd. Why is my first impulse to blame Americans for this? I'm so confused!

A sort of meta-complainant.

What a farked up country Canada is.

Wouldn't surprise me next year if Mandarin doesn't have a free lunch.

It's worse. This is the only thread I could find that mentions the deal.

From that thread, this is where the 'criticism' begins:

"You have to wonder if James Chiu will continue this promo next year, I heard he was criticized for discriminating against non canadians for asking them to pay or something like that...which is abit silly to me."

Someone who heard a rumour about someone biatching is now news? Stay classy, National Post.

Preaching to the choir here. There are four good newspapers in Ontario: the globe, the star, the montreal gazette, and page 3 of the sun.

Heh. National Post. There's a reason they're circling the drain, and here's part of it.

But the most important thing, the thing you must never forget....no matter how much they cry, no matter how much they beg, never, never feed them after midnight

I refuse to get sucked into this discussion by posting a comment.

/shiat, foiled again!

So subby wouldn't have a problem with someone having a "Whites Only" restaurant? DIAF racist coward.

You read the news on Page 3?

You shut your filthy whore mouth when Canadians are eating, eh?

Oh, well, I haven't picked up a copy of the sun since I got my own computer.

Please show your papers if you want free service or GTFO.

I'm all for this.

I'm also going to start pissing in the women's bathroom.

People are tools. So I'm assuming you had to show a birth certificate, driver's license or passport to get a free meal?

How it this a violation of human rights? The government does it all the time. It's called a Health Card, something you have to show to prove you're province of residence so you can get free basic health care and weed out the non-residents (*cough* Americans) who are trying to get free basic health care.

budsterr: So subby wouldn't have a problem with someone having a "Whites Only" restaurant? DIAF racist coward.

You must be horrified to find out that the Canadian government only issues passports to - get this - Canadian citizens.

/what does race have to do with citizenship?

it was an ugly day for most of southern Ontario...

The National Post is rag.

Actually, NP is the best of the lot in Toronto.

Sun: b00bs and ads

Toronto Star: call it Socialist Worker Daily or Pravda, your choice.

Globe and Mail: stodgy.

National Post is the best of the business reporting (ala G&M) with some the occasional sass of the Sun.

I live very near a Mandarin in Barrie Ontario. The line up was insane. But the outrage for discriminating against non-canadians probably never happened. Clearly the National Post is trolling for readers and it worked. There are certainly enough disgruntled Canadians looking for proof that non-Canadians are an ungrateful bunch of hosers.

As misfocused as this outrage is, the principle is sound. I don't know what the laws are in Canada, but we do have laws here against discrimination based on national origin, right? Why should it be ok for a business to discriminate that way? I can understand why budsterr was trying to say.

Canadians: need to prove citizenship for free food.
Americans: need to prove citizenship to be president.

The rarely seen Trifecta trifecta in play:
- citizenship papers required trifecta in play (see the birthers thread)
- Canadian versus American trifecta in play (see the health care thread)

I thought Chinese buffets were violations of everyone's human rights

/never been to one that was not disgusting
//huge fan of Chinese food

The National Joke carries on the fine journalism I've come to expect from it.

What a cool guy.

If I wanted to know about how evil and terrorist loving, gun stealing, criminal loving the Liberals are, while what a god on Earth saviour Steve Harper is I'll look at the Sun over the post, at least there's some nice pictures.

Granted I'll read an article now and then in the NP.. The Sun I won't even acknowledge.. if I want retarded commentary and idiots telling me how to think I'd get my news from blogs, my angry & uneducated Albertan roommates and Steveie H.. I guess I'd have to include Special Ed our wonderful Alberta preimere in that as well with all his incredible ideas.. I never thought someone could make Ralph Klein that drunk look decent.. I was wrong.

Tofino: WAHHHHHHH, EH!

//redflagdeals is usually teh awsum

came here to say the same thing. boo-hoo, i want my free whatever they are giving away.

and i have a right to free things. it's in the constitution.

This explains the sandy vaginas.

Pictures? Are you referring to their repeatedly rat-faced or borderline-Down's syndrome "Page 3 girls", dredged from Toronto's finest dive bars during happy hour with the promise of 24 hours of fame and getting to blow the photographer? Totally a reason to read the Sun.

Yes, I'm aware Down's syndrome is a trisomy, there's no "borderline" about it

This just confirms all suspicion that RedFlagDeals is composed of immigrants from Brampton.

Is that why Mexicans are the new Blacks?
I bet you guys give non-citizens first-class treatment. I've heard all about it.

I was thinking of going to this, living in TO and all, until I realized how many 'just off the boat' morons would screw it up for everyone else....
Looks like I was proven right....

I'd take the Star over NP any day.
Most of the NP articles, especially in the politics section, are so biased it's almost like reading the Sun. Have to agree NP probably has the best Business section (which I don't read) though.

If you are that upset, you should do what any good Canadian would do; boycott them next July 1st.

/ live just north of Barrie Ont.
// boycotted this year
/// had better things to do for 6 hours on Canada Day
//// like barbeque a steak and drink Brick Red Cap
// and add slashies to my posts

Bored Horde: Some people biatching on blogs is now news? Stay classy, National Post.

Came here to say this.

And a free meal at Mandarin? No thanks. I ate there once, never again - even if it's free.

It's like renting a U-Haul.

If they were refusing to serve non-Canadians, then that'd easily fall within discrimination laws. Instead, they gave their shiat away, and visitors were welcome to pay at the normal rate just like every other day.
Still, it'd have made sense to include immigrants.

I was BBQ'n the steaks on Wednesday to. My redcap beer is no longer in good ole stubbie bottles. They went and messed with my Cdn beer! Where's the outrage over that?

/really Creemore beer is better anyway

Happy Canada Day.

I have experienced the greatest friendhip and kindness from Canadians. What a great people and a great country. I really mean that.

Thanks.

Its the exact concept of a restaurant offering you free meal on your birthday. You have to prove its your birthday by showing ID. Nobody craps their pants and fires up Firefox to inform the world about that earth-shattering discovery. If its not your birthday you get diddly-squat for free. If so inclined and not on the floor rolling around in full-on tantrum mode, you are more than welcome to cram your gullet full of cake - it's just gonna cost you the 20 dollars.

If its not my birthday I wouldn't proclaim, "SHIVER ME TIMBERS, I DESERVE A FREE MEAL LIKE THE REST OF THESE BIRTHDAY FOLKS" Because I'd look and sound like a moron...just this small minority of idiots.

I agree. The local [insert fast food.sit down place] offered something similar for veterans day. I'm a vet but I didn't bring my ID or DD214 so I didn't get a free meal. I went back to work and ate my ramen for lunch.

Why do people get their panties in a bunch over this kind of stuff?

Lots of Barrie-and-area Farkers around. Should have a meet one of these days.

If your first impulse is to blame Americans for things... you might be a Canadian.

DId you ever think when you eat chinese It ain't pork or chicken but a fat siamese?

How is this about race? Its their(as a COUNTRY) DAY, arsehat. Not anyone elses.
Go to another restaurant where youll have to pay anyway. Problem solved.

This X1000.
Just because you, and a lot of people, might feel agitated about some people's comments, does not make it news. You can go on FreeRepublic everyday and find a lot of even more ridiculous comments.

This is why I hate liberals. They somehow think everyone in the world should change in order to not offend. You know, instead of liberals just growing a thicker skin and STFU.

Keep trolling dumbshiat.

The way I see it, it's just like having a coupon...

only that coupon means you're Canadian with documentation.

They didn't discriminate against anybody. Just told them that if they don't have the right coupon they can't get it for free.
