Hockey fans in Ottawa expressed discontent after the Trump administration introduced new sweeping trade tariffs against Canada
Canadian hockey fans booed the US national anthem during an NHL game in Ottawa on Saturday. The spectators' expression of displeasure with their southern neighbor comes after the administration of US President Donald Trump imposed new trade tariffs on Canada.
The incident took place at the Canadian Tire Center before the Ottawa Senators took on the Minnesota Wild. As Canadian singer Mandia began to perform the ‘Star-Spangled Banner’, numerous spectators jeered the song. Notwithstanding the crowd’s reaction, Mandia finished the anthem without a hitch. However, the mood changed when she sang ‘O Canada’, which drew applause and widespread cheers.
The home team went on to soundly defeat the Wild 6-0.
