 In a more serious note, anyone else think MLG pretty much HAS to be watching this very closely? Thisis a chance to prove that not only does Canada have just as rabid of a fan base as the US for Starcraft 2 but for Esports in general. The league fan base in Ottawa alone is massive, and I for one would absolutely LOVE to see the rest of the country turn out for what promises to be one of the highlights in Esports this year. | ||

lived in Toronto most of my life, yet I love Montreal, I love french language.....both places would be great to host NASL finals. People who are implying that toronto doesn't have a night life are being childish. No city that size has "nothing to do at night" I agree that Montreal through their barcrafts have shown a huge fanbase for e-sports but Toronto is a very accessible place that is recognizable all throughout Canada. It makes sense to put the first foot forward in Toronto even if those living in Montreal think it to not be the best one. I also go to school in Hamilton, and between Mcmaster university, and Toronto I've found a huge love for e-sports from both so I am sure the event will succeed.... if this follows with an MLG toronto...or even an MLG montreal I would be SO happy! I would also travel to both! People of montreal it's only 6 hours away!!! | ||

Toronto will always attract the premier sports and entertainment events. There is simply a bigger media market and economy there. Which is why NASL is going there. You can keep you poutine and crappy stripclubs and shove it up your empty bazillion dollar stadium !!!!!!! <--- not serious. | ||

Thank you for posting that awesome NFB video. Too bad the NFB is losing more and more money every year  Stupid governmentMay I just add Ottawa is like that one uncle you only ever see at family get togethers while Edmonton and Calgary are like the cousins you see at weddings and landmark anniversaries in relation to Montreal and Toronto, | ||

MLG had hosted two events in Toronto in the past, both of which I've attended, and the spectator attendance was very lackluster. As you can see now, MLG has not been back to Canada. Lets not make this mistake again! Start planning your road trips to Toronto. For those in Southern Ontario, you have no excuse not to be there! | ||
