While the United States may have defeated Canada in the world junior hockey championship match by a score of 4 to 3, it was a chant that really stole the show.
In response to chants of U-S-A by the Americans, Canadians chanted, We have health care!

(3,054 posts)extended benefits plan and dental plan fo offer you. My husband's job does and it covers $1200 max per year per family member.
Also, many NHL players either somehow avoid our lineups for specialists and imaging or go to the US.
Let's not pretend that having money regardless of where you live doesn't have its benefits.

(19,990 posts)went 1-0 up, and the scum who sadly infest the England soccer supporters, started chanting "No Surrender to the IRA" and other such stuff. Bearing in mind that at the time there were massive protests at Margaret Thatcher's "Community Charge" or "Poll Tax", someone in the Irish section started singing (to the beat of the conga) "We ain't got no Poll Tax, we ain't got no Poll Tax, na na na na" ! At that point the depressed Irish came alive.....we got the equalizer too !
