Falls ihr euch demnächst mal mit Freunden trefft, wisst ihr ja nun wie ihr sie begrüßen könnt.

Shawinigan Handshake is the epithet given to a chokehold executed on February 15, 1996 by Jean Chrétien, then Prime Minister of Canada, on anti-poverty protester Bill Clennett. The phrase comes from Chrétien’s birthplace of Shawinigan, Quebec, as the former prime minister often styled himself the “little guy from Shawinigan”.
