Wayne Gretzky Faces Backlash Over Trump Ties Amid Canada Tensions

News summary

Wayne Gretzky, the Canadian hockey icon, is facing backlash in Canada due to his political ties to former President Donald Trump, who has suggested that Canada could become the '51st state.' Criticism intensified following Gretzky's role as honorary captain for Team Canada at the 4 Nations Face-Off, particularly after he was seen giving a thumbs-up to Team USA, which many Canadians perceived as a betrayal. Gretzky's attendance at Trump's inauguration and previous photographs with the president have raised questions about his political stance, especially amidst rising U.S.-Canada tensions. Prominent Canadian sports writer Terry Jones stated that Gretzky’s relationship with Trump has become a focal point for public discontent, urging him to clarify his views. Despite the controversy, Gretzky has not publicly addressed the matter, leading to speculation about his support for Trump's agenda. This silence has affected his reputation, with some fans expressing disappointment in his lack of engagement on the political front.
