Ice hockey? Seriously, you complain about soccer and call hockey ice hockey, living in Canada?
I also don't trust posters who have to constantly use cartoons to try and prop up their "arguments" Most of us have the ability to read, even the colonial babble to which you subject the rest of us.

FFS man, No, I call it hockey... I was just calling it ice hockey in that post to differentiate it from the other types of hockey that exist too, and
are played in Canada... such as: field hockey, ball hockey, and roller hockey. When we're talking about which participation sports are most popular, it's important to be
specific.
Association football (soccer) is the most popular participation sport in Canada and is a more popular sport (by number of participants) than ice hockey.
I think that's sad, by the way, but this
isn't the thread to discuss the decline of hockey participation in Canada. Though, I did mention it in the Sports in Canadian Culture thread. Feel free to disagree with me there, like you always do!
