In Italy, thousands of people marched through the streets of Milan on Saturday to protest the environmental, social and economic impacts of the Winter Olympics. They’re also objecting to Israel’s participation in the Games — and the presence of Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents with the U.S. delegation. Police fired tear gas and water cannons as some protesters approached a hockey venue.
Inside the Games, U.S. Vice President JD Vance was met with a chorus of boos when he appeared at the opening ceremony on Friday evening. This is how the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation covered the brief on-camera appearance by JD and Usha Vance.
Devin Heroux: “In an individual sport. What an honor for her.”
Adrienne Arsenault: “There is the Vice President JD Vance and his wife Usha. Ooh, those are not — uhh, those are a lot of boos for him.”
Those boos were not audible in video of Vance’s appearance broadcast across the United States by NBC, and then widely shared online — including by the White House’s social media account.
