“Use of unnecessary violence in the apprehension of the Canada Goose Cup HAS been approved.”
The Bruise Brothers are on a mission… but not necessarily from God – they’re out for the Canada Goose Cup! Cheer on the Nikwax “Bruise Brothers” as they take on competing teams at the Canada Goose Cup Exhibition Street Hockey Tournament. While the use of violence has been approved, good sportsmanship is sure to prevail. It’s a good thing all clothes have been “waterproofed” beforehand.
All proceeds go to benefit the Conservation Alliance, so come show your support. The event takes place on Thursday, January 20th at 6:00 p.m. at the Salt Palace. Nikwax is a proud partner and member of the Conservation Alliance.
