"I didnt know where the term came from, did you? It is a hockey term that everyone learns when starting to play hockey, you are taught to keep your "elbows up" as a defense mechanism signalising you are ready to protect or to fight back, the phrase originates from hockey legend gordie howe, known for his toughness and use of elbows on the ice. The elbow up movement have gained momentum, it is appearing across social media platforms, it is in protest encouraging canadians to stand up and fight back. What is your view about it, do you agree with what they do? I can see why they do it, as they are protesting against the tariffs too." I'm sure trump is losing zero hours sleep over a load of people raising their elbows on social media. He literally gives zero fucks. | |||

"Movements like this can have more impact than people realise. They often galvanise people to take further action and certainly bring people together. " I see it similar to when Gerald Rayner kyboshed the brand, peer pressure is part of it but it's also got a feeling good element to it in that 'one is buying from here'.. | |||

Yep.. know the term… elbows up… protect yourself, get ready to fight… so Canadian 🇨🇦!! (Have the hockey theme from cbc in my head now!) Trump repartition of calling Canada the 51st state has really…. Really pissed them off! If you want to see how much trump’s comments have antagonised Canada go and watch the 4 nations ice hockey between Canada and USA in Montreal where the US gets booed mercilessly… followed by 3 different fights in the first 10 seconds! Anyway I like the premise.. take the American stuff off the shelves and buy Canadian! Also.. tourism is down 80% It’s one of those things where your average American (especially the Republican) doesn’t realise the hatred Canadians have for Trump right now! | |||
