Amid Trump tariffs, fans in Canada boo U.S. national anthem before Red Wings vs. Canucks game



Fans at Rogers Arena booed the U.S. anthem a day after President Trump signed an executive order imposing tariffs on Canada.

The boos began as soon as anthem singer Agasha Mutesasira began singing the anthem prior to puck drop between the Detroit Red Wings and Vancouver Canucks. It continued throughout the song — at times louder than others — and didn’t abate until near the end, when it appeared fans were applauding the singer, not the song.

  1. Interesting that these here canucks got Justin to rep them but are calling Don a dictator. Truly astounding.

  2. As a United States citizen and voter who did not vote for Trump, but for Kamala Harris, I am sickened by Trump's move to slap tariffs on Canada.

    I don't know what to say. This video has to do with Canada, and I feel compelled to apologize to Canadians for this unjust action.

  3. So they are okay that drugs come into the U.S. from across their border and kills U.S. citizens. They are also okay with the human trafficking across the border. Next thing you know they will be taking a knee. Very disrespectful. U.S. teams should stop playing on Canadian soil? Then they can boo themselves. I bet if they were attacked by an adversary they would be begging Trump and the U.S. for help.

  4. I am a Canadian born citizen and I don’t hate Americans I am dismayed at Justin Trudeaus ability to divide people and that is what he does best … Canadians don’t get news all they see us state sponsored media they are really in the dark Trump is trying to unify North America to fight for a free world against very bad regimes … like the one Canada us now under .., this division I do not condone as a Canadian I oppose it completely

  5. Canada has no one to blame but themselves sadly but true you let that toad treadeau ruin Canada. You reap what you sow boo yourselves.

  6. I can`t hear almost any booing here. Just wait for the next NFL game here in Germany. We will send F´face van Clownstick a proper message, that for sure..

  7. The news and the Democrats say that Americans will pay the price for these tariffs …. if that is true, why would Canadians boo?

  8. Isn’t there anyone who can sing the anthem without sounding like a cat with his tail caught in the door? Keep up the booing for every time it’s played .

  9. The U.S. Navy has two main fleets responsible for protecting the shores of the United States and Canada on both the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans:

    U.S. Second Fleet (Atlantic Ocean) – This fleet is responsible for operations along the U.S. East Coast, the North Atlantic, and the Arctic. It plays a crucial role in defending the eastern seaboard of both the U.S. and Canada.

    U.S. Third Fleet (Pacific Ocean) – This fleet covers the eastern and central Pacific, including the U.S. West Coast and waters off Canada’s Pacific coast. It ensures maritime security and works closely with allies like Canada.

    Both fleets cooperate with the Royal Canadian Navy (RCN) and organizations like NORAD (North American Aerospace Defense Command) to maintain security in North American waters.

  10. Canadian teams should stop singing the US anthem….its a sign of respect and as a Canadian, I have none left for the disaster of a country we border with.

  11. I can't imagine in 2026 when america will host the world cup .. the world will booooo your national anthem americans!!! Because of your president you will be hated!!!

  12. It's not just the tariffs. Trump has openly said on multiple occasions that the US should annex Canada and make it the 51st state. Whether he's serious or not, that's an outrageous demonstration of disrespect to one of our oldest and closest allies. If a foreign leader talked that way about America you better believe we'd do a lot worse than boo his anthem.
