President Obama is in Ottawa today — but only for six hours, and certainly not long enough to check out the national sport of Canada. In an interview with Peter Mansbridge of the Canadian Broadcasting Co., the president — a baseball, basketball and football fan — revealed he’s never been to a hockey game.

PRESIDENT OBAMA: I’m looking forward to making it happen at some point.
