Chirping in, it’s probably because you watch the Leafs.
No but for real, I agree. The amount of ads since Covid has increased drastically and it’s so annoying. So many board ads, so many jersey/helmet ads, betting ads are everywhere and it’s just… urgh. I love the sport, but it’s such an horrible league. I’ve been going more to LHJMQ and it’s more fun (local Québec league).
As it was said just bellow, it’s due to shipping companies.
As regular citizens, we can « import » up to 800$ without paying tariffs. However, let’s say company A imports items from the US. They will do so with numbers over 800$, probably in the thousands or millions. This means it’s over the limit of obligatory signaling to the border agents and then they pay tariffs on that amount.
It’s kinda that process.
