Bernie Sanders and his mittens can now be spotted in Vancouver

It was a historic day for the US on Wednesday, and amid everything that took place during President Joe Biden’s inauguration, Bernie Sanders unwittingly stole the spotlight.
The Vermont senator got the meme treatment, as images circulated across social media of a cross-legged Sanders sitting in a physically distanced chair wearing mittens and a face mask during Biden’s ceremony.
Now, Sanders and his mittens have made it all the way to Vancouver, showing up at places like YVR, local parks, and even a Canucks game.
