The treatment by feminists and their gutless male supporters of an 85-year-old man for a comment that was unexceptionable for centuries – even for time out of mind – demonstrates a society in steep decline.

85-year-old Hockey Scout Is Pilloried for Calling a Reporter “good-looking”
Nothing is more feminist than cruelty in the name of decency
Janice Fiamengo, May 15, 2026
The story is now a common one: an older man disgraced and punished for a “sexist” offence. In an instant, his reputation is shattered. Previously respected in his work, he becomes a target of contempt and hatred. Few defend him in his hour of need, and abundant sympathy is expressed for his alleged victim(s), whose harms are often imaginary.
Last weekend, it was Canadian hockey scout Terry Bonner who was put in the stocks. Bonner is the head scout for the Vancouver Giants, a Canadian junior hockey team that is part of the Western Hockey League, with 23 member clubs that develop talent for the National Hockey League.
Bonner is 85 years old, with over two decades with the Giants. His offence was to tell a pretty young female reporter, Cami Kepke, that she was good-looking. His exact words were (as seen in the clip here, which has now been viewed over 2.5 million times), “Well thank you very much, you good-lookin’ girl.” After that, he chuckled and sat back in his chair, whether in embarrassment or satisfaction it was hard to say, and continued with his answer.
For that moment of indiscretion during an interview—Kepke was congratulating him on the Giants’ third-round draft pick and asking what the player in question, Eli Vickers, would bring to the team—The Giants have been fined $5000 by the Canadian Hockey League for “conduct detrimental to the League.” Meanwhile, unctuous apologies, statements of feminist rectitude, and exultant finger-pointing have broken out all around Bonner. This moment of humiliation may well be Bonner’s last public appearance.
