Given the World Cup has featured Canada, then does that mean that you are not allowed to cheer for who you want?The World Cup has never featured Canada, so I am allowed to cheer for who I want.

I only watch the Leafs. That's enough of a burden. I watch the NFL as well by the way.
Canada was in the '86 World Cup. And yes, by an act of Parliament I am officially allowed to tell people who they can cheer for.
I could own it too in theory. The point is four groups are mentioned but no one is named and no one is quoted. The Fords were clearly grandstanding. They sent up a trial balloon and almost everyone in the media shot it down.
A massive lie and an ignorant statement. Your credibility just went out the window.

Ah, I hadn't realised you were an immigrant.So I support my parentd country.
lol, never been to Regina before a Riders game, I see, only a tiny fraction of Canadians would do something like spend a lot of their after-tax income following their favourite team around from game to game, or invite their extended family to set up a picnic in front of the arena 6 hours before
which is why a city like Green Bay, WI which is the size of London, Ontario,

Oh dear, your not one of those come watches Canada plays once a decade when their country of birth plays Canada, but can't be bothered to come watch Canada play anyone else.

I think something else NFL supporters don't think about is that it is kind of a slap in the face of Canadians elsewhere in the country. Toronto already has a reputation for being "too good for Canada" and when they root for an American team over the domestic league, it really kind of feels like an insult to even non CFL fans in the ROC. Toronto may like to be world class and all that, but you're leaving behind the very thing that makes this city unique, its Canadianness. NFL is a symptom of that.
As pointed out above, Canada has made the men's World Cup previously.No. but Canada is never in the world cup right? I would support them if they were
While we think that we're crazy about hockey, only a tiny fraction of Canadians would do something like spend a lot of their after-tax income following their favourite team around from game to game, or invite their extended family to set up a picnic in front of the arena 6 hours before the puck drops. I was recently in Scottsdale, AZ when the Bowl Championship Series game (to decide the winner of NCAA Division 1A football) was in town, and the euphoria in the air, the sheer number of out-of-state license plates, and the amount of merchandising and advertising that you were assaulted with from the airport all the way into town made it feel like the Olympics had rolled in. I don't think that a couple of Canadians talking about the NFL at the water cooler are going to compete with a fan base like that.
Nor does New York City. However New Jersey has two.
Do we want to be New York or New Jersey.
