Blue Jays fans boycott Seattle games amid US-Canada trade war
This weekend, the annual Canadian invasion of Seattle by Toronto Blue Jays fans looks like it might be different than previous years.
Blue Jays superfan Arthur Gallant went to a game between his team and the Seattle Mariners last summer and intended to return for the three-game set this weekend.
However, when U.S. President Donald Trump started his 51st state rhetoric about Canada, Gallant said it didn’t feel right to cross the border.
“I have to put my country over my team and really send a message with my money,” he told Global News.
Global’s Troy Charles reports on how Seattle business owners are trying to lure Canadians to the city.
