Canada isn't looking too hot these days...

I know this isn't the thread, but I'm surprised there was no mention that I saw, of the 3 gloves off brawls IN THE FIRST NINE SECONDS of the hockey match up, between the USA and Canada. I think the players may have even planned it, to fire up the crowds.
Totally. Let off some steam & like you said, get the crowds into the spirit.

That being said, I think this is the first time in history that Americans heard their anthem being booed and were like "Yeah, that's fair".

Will Canadian fans boo the anthem in Boston? Will the fans jeer O Canada?

The US team wants Trump there to cheer them on.
He'd never go anywhere where he knows he'll be booed. His ego couldn't handle it.

As for the team USA's comments - we're getting into pure trolling territory now. We're talking teenage chatroom-level discourse.

I guess it says something that both countries are comfortable enough to throw jabs like this and not worry about an actual war breaking out.

The real sentiment behind this play on MAGA is "Make Trump Go Away". Without him, things like this hat wouldn't exist.

Canada turns to trading energy exports from the US to EU. US Administration scrambling.


As you might imagine, as a German, I am stoked (y)(y)(y)
 
Crosby scoring the winning goal would have made my night.
It can't be understated how important the win was for the country. Imagine what tump would have said if the US won?
It was nice to see the PM tell tump to suck it on twitter.
And now we have Gretzky thrown into all this...

The major roadblock is pipelines in Canada. Most of the energy is in the west of Canada, and you need pipelines to get to ports in the east to export to the EU.
But environmentalists and native people block those plans. We'll see if they will come around in these current times.

Ontario may hold back on exporting electricity to the US. What a fucked up world this has become. The US government is picking unnecessary fights with its neighbors and allies.
Let's not forget, Doug is the brother of the coke-head former mayor or Toronto. He's not exactly the refined, classy polite type. He's got a tough guy image and that got him reelected 3 times in a row. He will absolutely follow through with the threat, especially since the Canadian public will back him up.

It's a very dangerous game of chicken that's being played here. What's tump going to say? "We're going to invade Niagara Falls and take over their power plants"?
...wait, after what he just said about Greenland last night, he might actually say that too...
