In the midst of ongoing political tensions between the U.S. and Canada, President Trump has promoted the idea of absorbing Canada as the “51st state” and has threatened tariffs and economic force on the country. This has led to the booing of the American national anthem at sporting events in Canada, including a recent hockey match between USA and Canada. The game was marked by fights between players from both teams, with some players admitting they had planned for the confrontations in a group chat beforehand.
Players on both teams condemned the booing of the anthem, with some emphasizing that they were playing for their country and not for the cameras. General manager Bill Guerin invited Trump to attend the game, but he called in to speak with the American players instead. Trump taunted Canada on social media, suggesting that Canada may one day become the 51st state of the U.S. and mocking Prime Minister Trudeau as “governor.”
After the game, Trudeau responded on social media, stating that Canada’s country and game could not be taken away. The Canadian embassy did not comment on the situation. The ongoing tensions and actions of both countries have led to heightened emotions and confrontations both on and off the ice.
