Canadian hockey fans boo US national anthem again amid Trump's tariff threat... despite announcer begging them not to

Canadian hockey fans could once again be heard booing the US national anthem amid President Trump's threats of tariffs - despite officials pleading with them beforehand.

The US were taking on Finland in the Four Nations Face-Off in Montreal on Thursday night, but much of the build-up was dominated by whether Canadian fans would once again show their disapproval of their neighbors to the south.

Just days after Ottawa Senators supporters booed the US anthem before an NHL game against Minnesota, Montreal's hockey fans made their voices heard.

As each of the Team USA players' names were read out by the public address announcer, they were met by loud boos from the crowd north of the border.

Incredibly, the announcer then pleaded with fans to 'show respect' to the anthems of both nations before they were played, but some went against the request and boos could be heard in the background.

Taking to X, one fan wrote: 'Canadians are such losers for still booing our National Anthem. Why is this game even in Montreal?'

Another added: 'Watching the NHL 4 Nations Playoff. It's in Montreal and all those ****ing babies are booing the USA players. Now they are booing the USA National anthem. What a bunch of ******s. That's not a very good representation of the future 51st State.'

4 Nations Face-Off but without Russia. The best player is Alexander Ovechkin and he’s not on a team.

Trump is wrong on this.

He is, indeed. Canada would be a blue state. And do we really want Quebec, whose ethnic conflicts have bedeviled Canada since the 1700s?

It shows the low information understanding of Canadians. If they were paying attention to the world around them, they would understand the fentynol devastation was a wild fire taking out hundred of thousands of lives in both Canada and America. Trump wanted Canada to do its part putting out the fire. If it took the stick of tariffs to wake up the Canadian government, it was done to save lives.

Maybe they were saying “bow” ?
But you know , their trouble with pronouncing words correctly sounds like “boo”.

I’m aware this doesn’t make any sense but they’re Canadian

Canadians will fit right in as the 51st state. There is a large contingent of Americans who disrespect the national anthem. It will be fun to teach them about freedom.
