I have to admit I also learned something today. Hopefully I’m in the minority and you’ll find a market who are familiar with the phrase.

As a hockey fan who’s also been lucky enough to visit Canada a few times I’d have been embarrassed if I’d had to look up the origin

Here’s the definition from the Cambridge dictionary, who knew :
a phrase, originally referring to an ice hockey player, that is used to encourage people to be strong and determined and ready to defend themselves:
The caption read “Keep calm and elbows up.”
“Elbows up” is appearing across social media platforms, encouraging Canadians to stand up and fight back.
Elbows up, Canada! We will stand strong for the values that define us as Canadians.
The player’s practice of keeping his “elbows up” to ward off attacks from the opposing team has become a focal pointfor Canadians’ resistance against aggression.
