Why do people spell Canucks as Cunucks?
I have noticed a lot of people spelling the Canucks name as Cunucks. Even people who cheer for them. Is it supposed to be some kind of Insult/pun or do people just not know how to spell?

Most likely they are the bandwagon fans.

I've never actually seen anyone spell it like that. I'm assuming that some people spell it like that because they may pronounce it will that? I've heard people call the "Canucks" and "Cunuks." Maybe that's why???
GO CANUCKS GO!!!!! :)

People spell it Canucks because they are from Can a da.
The people you saw apparently don't know how to spell.

Not an insult, they just spell it wrong (the way they pronounce it). People sometimes mess up my favorite's team name too by writing ''canadians'' instead of ''canadiens''...
