Canadian Fans Hurl Abuse At U.S. Players

McMartin said the U.S. coach probably "hadn't figured on the Canadian weakness for envy."

so i guess they think they're pretty hard in british columbia, huh? how hard would they be if hollywood stopped doing business up there (which they will and are since they've found and continue to find greener pastures)? what else is bc claim to fame? the dope and homeless capital of the west coast (us and canada)? the dope and homeless capital of north america? a city and province completely infiltrated and controlled by asian organized crime syndicates?

vancouver may have a alot of highrise apartment buildings downtown but it sure doesn't have an economy that matches it's inflated image.

Boy, there sure are a lot of stupid and unintelligent trolls that post here. But I notice on most of the articles and threads that they are just ignored. which is a good thing. Just ignore these people, let them vent away, I find it quite amusing.

> that they are just ignored. which is a good thing...ignore these people, let them vent away, I find it quite amusing.

sorta like the rest of the world does to self-deluded canada?

At least it was at a hocky game rather than on the ferry or downtown on the street.

I'm curious: how does that make it any better? Are rude drunks at hockey games heckling another country so much a fact of life in canada that you think it's to be expected?
