OTTAWA — Snoop Dogg shouted out Canada’s First Nations in his ongoing social media campaign to promote his bid to buy the NHL’s Ottawa Senators.
The rapper is part of a bid spearheaded by Los Angeles-based businessman Neko Sparks.
Snoop Dogg posted a video to Instagram yesterday in a recording studio and wearing an Ottawa Senators jersey.
He said in the video that he and Sparks were “trying to do something, trying to make a difference” with the bid.
Sportsnet reports that the Sparks-led bid would include an equity stake for local First Nations communities.
Postmedia says that four groups submitted bids and one of those was at the US$1 billion mark.
