I hope #Gretzky is weeping as I type. Anyone who doesn't call him #Shithead from now on (with apologies to Joe Keithley) is cancelled.

Canada is not having any of this. None of it. Wish we here in the US had their gumption & grit.

Lmaooo- I guess we should all feel bad for "the great one" because he made the conscious decision to become best buddies with a megalomaniacal sociopath?

'Gretzky has come under scrutiny from Canadians for his friendship with trump, and the #hockey great's wife has said the criticism left gretzky "heartbroken."

#Gretzky attended a victory party for #trump last year. He was spotted wearing a #maga hat shortly afterward and attended Trump's inauguration.' #canada #uspol

Apparently, Wayne Gretzky feels bad over the criticisms of his Trump support. His wife claims his heart is broken over the online comments.

Good.

He has wronged his country, and he should feel guilt, shame, and pain at a time when Trump is inflicting harm on the country he claims to love.

He needs to choose, an American dictator or the Canadian people. He cannot remain close to Trump and also enjoy the love and support of Canada.

First Trump had to speak up for #Gretzky, now it's Doug Ford. I would have thought that if #Gretzky's tongue had been cut out...somehow it would have been reported. Even his wife has to speak up for him. Who knew what a wimp he is?

“By Sunday, the backlash to the backlash was starting. Canada turned on Don Cherry, and now it was turning on Mr. Gretzky.”

If you're remotely connected to #Trump here's the rule: IT CAN ALWAYS GET WORSE. Case in point: #Gretzky: reviled now in Canada, he can't even speak for himself. Needs 'Daddy Trump' to come to his defense. I'm beyond loathing. For both Trump and The Grovel One.

I actually believe all it would take is an apology from Gretzky (himself).

After all, it wouldn't be the first time The Great One tearfully apologized to Canadians (and Edmontonians) for abandoning us for America.

I don't know if he's going to do that though. And unfortunately, that's going to cost him his reputation.

This time, it's a little more serious than a hockey trade.

“After Orr, his wife, and Trump have all put words in “The Great One’s” mouth, perhaps Wayne Gretzky will eventually speak for himself on the topic.”

Oh Canada… when our hockey heroes turn out to be pot-metal, not gold.
““I have so many great friends,” Trump said in January.. “One of them is The Great One. I said, ‘Run for prime minister, you’ll win. … It will take two seconds.’ He said, ‘Well, am I gonna run for prime minister or governor? You tell me.’ I said, ‘..let’s make it Governor. I like that better.’’‘

"It started on social media with news that Mr. #Gretzky had been booed in some #Canadian bars showing the game. That spread to fringe outlets using words like #traitor. Which allowed mainstream outlets to use the word in quotes. ...
Things were probably irreparable after the first time he was pictured in a #MAGA hat, gone full #sycophant. But when he would not wear our uniform after wearing theirs, that was truly it."

Canada’s nearly 50-year romance with Wayne #Gretzky came to an end - The Globe and Mail https://www.theglobeandmail.com/sports/article-how-canadas-nearly-50-year-romance-with-wayne-gretzky-came-to-an-end/ “Gretzky used to stand for only one thing – Canada. He hasn’t for a long time”

We have a new Canadian term: "Gretzky Fail".

Persona non grata.

#Gretzky (spit) should surrender his citizenship and passport. He isn't one of us anymore.
