President Trump seized upon Team USA's thrilling Olympic women's hockey gold medal victory over Canada to deliver another pointed remark about America's neighbor to the north. The win marked another opportunity for Trump to highlight American athletic achievement while criticizing Canada.
Team USA defeated Canada in a closely contested women's hockey final to claim the gold medal, with one team member declaring the squad "the best women's hockey has ever seen." Trump's remarks added political dimensions to the sporting rivalry between the two North American nations.
