The news for Canada's back line gets worse and worse.

In his first game back after a lengthy hamstring injury, Alistair Johnston injured his hamstring, has just had surgery and will be out months.

Derek Cornelius, the "lone survivor" of the projected starting back line left his last game with an injury. We don't know the severity of that yet, he had an icepack on his thigh and walked off the field on his own so hopefully it isn't serious.
