Justin Trudeau sends jabs towards NHL's Gary Bettman in presser
Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau was recently in Toronto to introduce a new team coming to the NBA, which will be playing at the Maple Leafs' arena, Scotiabank Arena, in 2026.
The franchise was purchased for $115 million by Larry Tanebaum, chairman and part owners of Maple Leafs sports and entertainment.
Cathy Engelbert stated:
Expanding internationally helps us connect with new fans and partners. It's great to see young kids in another country see that women's professional basketball matters too.
Justin Trudeau than had a turn to speak and used it as the perfect time to roast NHL commissioner Gary Bettman and his 5-foot-5 height.
Trudeau thanked Engelbert for bringing a Toronto WBNA franchise to life, and then made a playful joke towards Bettman, stating:
"You're much taller than Gary Bettman... I'm really gonna like working with you!"
Trudeau said to the female WNBA commissioner.These two faces (Trudeau/Bettman) are truly some of the most disliked names in their craft, but which one is disliked the most?
