Montreal hockey fans booing American national anthem

3/21/2003

The national anthems of both the United States and Canada will continue to be played before NHL games despite the situation in Montreal Thursday night.

A spokesperson for the Montreal Canadiens said the team regrets the incident and was discussing ways of rectifying the situation.

After the sellout crowd of more than 21,000 was asked to show their support and respect for two great nations, a significant portion of the crowd made their feelings known regarding the U.S.-led war against Iraq.

I never really thought about how people in Quebec would react to all of the shit going on... are most people in Quebec as anti-war as the french?
