Elbows Up Est. 1867 Never 51 Shirt – Hockey, Heritage, and Sovereignty
Designed for those who love their country and aren’t afraid to show it, this shirt features a bold red maple leaf—a tribute to Canada’s national flag. Above the image, the words “Elbows Up” call to mind Canada’s scrappy, never-back-down attitude. Below the maple leaf, the phrase “Never 51” serves as a direct response to the idea of Canada ever becoming the 51st U.S. state. This is a statement of independence, of national pride, and of the unwavering strength of the Canadian people.

The inspiration behind this design goes beyond just sports—it’s about sovereignty. When former U.S. President Donald Trump made comments that raised speculation about Canada’s position in relation to the U.S., Canadian leader Pierre Poilievre shut down the idea immediately, reaffirming that Canada is and always will be independent. This moment ignited a wave of national pride, and now, with the Elbows Up Est. 1867 Never 51 Shirt, you can wear that pride on your sleeve—literally.
Wearing this shirt is about more than just fashion—it’s about making a statement. It’s about celebrating Canada’s history, pushing back against external pressures, and reminding the world that Canada is not for sale. Whether you’re a hockey enthusiast, a history buff, or simply someone who loves this great nation, this Elbows Up Est. 1867 Never 51 Shirt is for you.
Stand tall, wear the maple leaf with pride, and remember: Elbows up, Canada—Never 51!
