the fact that the 2nd largest province doesnt have a team is so insane

The city of quebec is actually doing research about the viability of a team. I think in 3-5 years there will be a team for sure

@user-tr5wx5uu5b call them the Fc Nordiques and it would get done for next season.

Teams don’t just pop out of nowhere. They are funded and ran by ownership groups. It’s a shame that no one in QC has stepped up yet.

@@Cofitube94 I would if I had the money for sure.

Yeah, I feel like it may be a coaching issue tbh.

I love that Quebec is having some success, I do feel for the Halifax fans. I hope they'll get success relatively soon

As a Wanderers ticket holder, this start we are having has been really killing the buzz we had in the pre-season. I miss Morelli 😢😢

@@PontiacBandit902 I would imagine so but still have belief in your team. I’m not in Halifax but i heavily support the team and fan base.

French? You mean Quebecois

@@Cofitube94 he said montreal

Maybe not Montreal because the city already has an MLS team, but Quebec city needs one 100%

​@@appletree13 I think it's possible, They got a Vancouver club to share with Whitecaps.

@@NSLUploader true, but VFC does have to compete with the 'Caps, an as a result they have one of the lowest attendances in the CPL. I don't think the CPL should try teams in and around the major cities.

​@@appletree13somewhat disagree. I think there are plenty of GTA cities and Toronto neighbourhoods that could support a team. It just has to be done right. I can't speak to the same for Montreal or Vancouver as I don't know the intracacies of their cities, but I'm sure it's possible. Ultimately, with 40% of the country's population and probably an even greater share of the country's soccer fans, the GTA and Southern Ontario will have to have more teams. And I think this evolution will spark the intense rivalries that the league needs to progress. The CPL won't be able to function like the National Lacrosse League with Mickey Mouse team names in vehicle cities. It will have to become more global style, a la London with multiple clubs, or Sydney and a Melbourne with their umpteen NRL/ARL teams.

@@GrahamLT Wider Ontario I agree. Fake London needs a team, as does Windsor (and a couple other mid-size cities). I meant in the immediate area. Just outside Montreal is fine, providing that it doesn't go under the Montreal name, just as York FC is their own team but play in a suburb of Toronto. You're probably right about Toronto tbh, given as I've never been. Besides, only Toronto really has the population to do that. I can't speak for Montreal either, given that I've also never visited, but Vancouver doesn't really have the population and density to support that at the moment. Like I said, VFC have to compete with the Caps, but VFC play in Langley, which is far out from most of the population centres, meaning people will have to travel quite a bit for an argurably worse team. Now that will change slightly with the eventual finishing of the Surrey-Langley Skytrain, but the problem remains. Apologies if this is incoherent or contradicts itself, it's 10:30pm when I wrote this and I've had a long day 😅

Losses to non pro teams count double

TFC will destroy these guys just to show how big of a difference MLS vs CPL is.

TFC is getting a really easy ride it seems

HaLLLLifax ftfy

The difference between the Ligue 1 Quebec and CPL is really low because most teams rely on local players unlike MLS with few international talents. The same can be seen in the different semi-pro leagues in the UK.

@@user-tr5wx5uu5b ohh okay. Thanks for the breakdown. Makes sense now.

Referee needs to be fired, shocking decision

@@rorywhalen-edwards1591 for 1 error??? NO
