Don Cherry comments on immigrants; Ron MacLean calls it an orchestrated exit strategy

Don Cherry was fired from Hockey Night in Canada in 2019 for controversial comments about immigrants and Remembrance Day poppies. Ron MacLean, his former co-host, suggested Cherry’s remarks were a deliberate exit strategy following a pneumonia scare. Cherry denies MacLean’s claims, expressing disappointment and stating he has no desire to discuss the matter further with MacLean.
