I'm American and, just like during Don the Con's last term, I refuse to stand for the anthem while he's destroying our country and hurting the most vulnerable among us. Keep the boos coming, we deserve it!
Although I agree with the boos, it's a double edged sword because you can bet this is music to Putin's ears. His plan will be to use trump to drive a wedge between his enemies. I honestly think it will fail..it will bond Canada with the citizens of the USA that actually care about their country.
Trump has not excluded tariffs. He’s given us a month while he decides how we should be “dealt with” which personally I find more offensive than just getting on with it. My boycott of US goods will continue
Alternative option: the performers use that platform they’ve been given to have a moment of silence, change the anthem, use the massive reach they have in that moment to speak out against atrocities happening. But it would take some serious guts to do. I will admit that.
why would you sing it, all performers should refuse you know the way the convicted felon refuses to listen to anyone but his stupid self and his stupid tiny Elon Musk
This is not the way to behave. Politicizing a sporting event does nothing but show the ignorance of those participating in it. The players, employees, even the owners didn't start this mess. Those who do this are stooping to the same level as those they mock. Redirect your anger and do better.
Get lost. The polite Canadian bullshit get's you nowhere. You'd rather we just sat back and said, please don't do it? Sorry for objecting. Time to grow a pair.
Yes, in every instance of these boos, both anthems are sung, and the boos only happen during the US anthem. During O, Canada, there are cheers and applause.
Understood! Sometimes in the States when both anthems are sung they have two different singers. I'm glad she got to sing both and got the applause she so justly deserved! ☺️🇨🇦
Remember when Canadians finished the American National Anthem? My heart breaks at how successful Trump was at dividing countries. https://youtu.be/mHSaHRd4Q48
I don’t blame them. But I’d rather they support the people who are trying to stop the craziness. I hope they understand they hate the current administration - not everyone.
I hate the US presently the people are allowing a lying convicted felon rapist to lie about Canada. We have had the backs of the US many times, given our own homes, money, safety to you and you stab us in the back. I request you protest if not do do not come to Canada you are not welcome
How soon until artists refuse to sing the US anthem?
Canadian sports venues and Teams would gain immense popularity both sides the 49th if they hired a tone deaf circus clown to play the Star Spangled Banner on a calliope.
This truly makes me sad...and nauseous...we need to ensure our anger towards the felon does not morph into hate for our American friends, this is not who we are.
From a U.S. Vet, I agree with you. Not all of us are part of this. 1 man's actions, or 2 in this case, does not define the entire population. We must unite together instead of letting them rip us apart. But, I understand if you hate my Kansas City Chiefs, LOL.
Trust me, I am and have been aware of this before the election. Sadly, everyone I know did not believe me and now they are finding out. And, they are not happy. I know it's FAFO, but at the same time. United we stand, divided we fall.
Thats why im saying hating eachother is Russias plan and their endgame goal, Russia is in a minor civil war at the moment with the russian freedom legion and they were embarassed thus they used trump as a weapon to destablize and bring about ruin to the superpower that is the U.S
Given recent events, anthems should not be sung anymore. Ottawa is a government town. It is very quiet, polite, and peaceful. So, if we feel betrayed enough to be so rude, imagine how the rest of the country feels.
I totally get the sentiment. I feel bad for the people tasked with the singing. That has to be totally nerve wracking. They need to stop singing the anthem at Canadian events.
Yes that is true. Sometimes they are young people and it is a big deal for them to sing at these events. But to have to do it through that kind of response would be hard for an adult, never mind a kid.
Then someone needs to explain to them that it’s not them being booed and to take it personally. They need to understand this is a deadly serious situation. I am glad to see Canadians reacting this way to American aggression.
My daughter is Canadian, as are my four grandsons. It does not message our moronic leader to boycott anything. Standing together is more helpful than gut-punching morale, especially at a beloved shared sport. ❄️Do something to message tRump, not the whole country.
We've had a wake up call. The US is not the ally we thought it was. They wanted to hurt us. I'll continue buying Canadian to help our beautiful country be less reliant on the US even after the tangerine turd is gone 🇨🇦💕💪 #strongasfuck

I am enjoying the booing energy, I just wish performers weren't caught in the middle. It's a big moment for some, and getting booed that heartily...
In case you didn't know, Canadians only know peacekeeping and total war, no in between.
So take the boos and stop telling us what to do.
We are not booing the singer or the players...

We are that sweet, most can't resist us

Less blowback than full blackout.

I'm an atrocious singer I might accidentally get the words wrong
Face your backs to him and booo all the way through.
Tarrifs are called Tarrif Wars for a reason they are an act of cruelty meant to hurt a enemy nation. Great to know U.S think of us as enemies.
So yeah Boo to the traitors who turned their back on Canada.
I will always respect the greatest Alliance in the world; Canada and U.S.
Trump is a foreign asset attacking American interests. We know together we can stop him from hurting more people.
