Trudeau roasts NHL commissioner Bettman in press conference

During the announcement, Cathy Engelbert, the WNBA Commissioner, emphasized the significance of expanding internationally.
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.

When it was Justin Trudeau's turn to speak, he seized the moment to make a playful jab at NHL Commissioner Gary Bettman, particularly noting Bettman's height. Trudeau expressed his gratitude to Engelbert for bringing the Toronto
WNBA franchise to life, and then humorously remarked:
"You're much taller than Gary Bettman... I'm really gonna like working with you!"
Trudeau said to the female WNBA commissioner.
The light-hearted comment drew laughter from the audience, highlighting Trudeau's knack for blending humor into his public appearances.
The playful banter between Trudeau and Bettman raises an interesting question: Among these two prominent figures, both known for their polarizing reputations, who is more disliked?
The debate continues, as both Trudeau and Bettman have their share of critics in their respective domains.
