“Definitely the Trudeau meeting, because they’ve been asking me about scheduling it,” he said. “I’ve heard nothing about the White House. We’re Canada’s team anyway, right?”

The Raptors are the first team from Canada to win a championship in one of North America’s four major professional sports since the Toronto Blue Jays won the World Series and the Montreal Canadiens won the Stanley Cup in 1993.youth nfl jerseys cheap
Nurse emphasized his desire to celebrate the Raptors’ title in their home country: “Let’s go see Trudeau up in Ottawa. … We’re Canada’s team.”nfl youth jerseys
