Does this qualify as false advertising?

The Vancouver Canucks have started using "We are all Canucks" as their tag line for the team's marketing efforts. Does this qualify as false advertising since 8 players on their active roster don't hail from Canada? I guess "We are all Canucks except the Sedins, Demitra, Kesler, Edler, Krajicek, Ohlund, and Salo" didn't have the same ring.

The Islanders' slogan has been "We're All Islanders" for the past year. It's so stupid. But it's not as bad as their other one - "Grit, Character, and Heart". As in, no talent.

They've been using that slogan for a while now. It lends itself to a high level of abuse. :)

it doesnt have to be read literally, could simply mean, all the players are deep down canucks fans, so they do the best for the team.

its uniting eh :)
