I get that she's being satirical but I never liked her as a comedian since so much of her comedy is bragging about all the breaks she's been given all her life. It doesn't mean she should be canceled, though, much as I don't like her comedy.
There was a guy at my work site making fun of dead residential children I brought it up with my supervisor who then took it to the prime contractor...... Apparently a ,,"ZERO TOLERANCE " workplace .... it was swept under the rug it pisses me off when I think about zero tolerance
Sophie is hilarious make all the judgements you want about comedy but deep down we all know when the news cycle runs outta steam and does a hail mary hit piece
I just watched the joke. I think what works against the comedian here was it wasn't funny or clever which made it come off as tone-deaf and offensive. If the joke had actually been witty, I guarantee it doesn't get nearly the amount of backlash as more people would've defended her.
I felt the same. I think the build up was great but the punchline felt awkward and almost forced offensive. If she would have said: "Have the child and send it to a residential school" It would have been the same joke, but slightly more clever (I'm at a disadvantage because I'm not very clever) and less awkward.
Is it possible to show what she said and we can make a judgement?

this is the full video.
"I'm so offended" all it takes is sticks and stones huh.
Ah yes, CityNews where you can hear complaints about something without that something actually being reported.
It’s only considered offensive because of the colour of the comedian telling the joke.
Outrage Culture Is Sooo Dumb
Someone should tell the woke it's just a joke
thank you for your coverage of this story.
Y, weee u offended Pocahontas ?

If you don't like her jokes don't listen. Nobody cares if you're offended.
It's so embarrassing that she's from Vancouver.
soft
this made the news?
Cowboy to the genie: "I'll have a coke, please."

You sound like a great person to work with.
They shoulda buried it instead of sweeping it under the rug 😂😂😂😂
The woke are so good at dishing it out but can't take it. It's so funny.

Not a single body from the fake residential school "graves" 🤷
Can't joke about genocide against indigenous people
Ignore them, don’t respond and enjoy your craft as a comedian.
Aww, the little crybabies can't take a joke. Do you want to run into your safe space?
I'm now definitely going to have to find a copy of her routine.
What? Too soon?!
In the context of the joke, yeah it's too soon. I thought it would be something more witty or clever but it came off more as offensive.
Teaching them how to read, write and add two numbers together is one of the dumbest things the English and French ever did.
I'm NOT sorry.
