What does "Elbows Up" mean?
What started as a hockey phrase signaling defense and readiness has evolved into a symbol of Canadian independence. The phrase “Elbows Up,” once used to warn players to defend themselves or fight back, gained new political significance after comedian Mike Myers donned a “Canada is not for sale” shirt on Saturday Night Live in February 2025, emphasizing national pride. Originally associated with hockey legend Gordie Howe, “Elbows Up” now serves as a rallying cry for Canadians standing up for their country. Explore how this spirited gesture has been transformed from rink-side defense to a powerful emblem of patriotism.
