I was really hoping that this event would mark the turning of a corner for Canada.
I think 'turning the corner' would be an overstatement, given how FIFA 2026 is shared among three countries. Canada was always going to be in the shadow of the US and Mexico in this particular event, even if there was big buy-in from all 3 of Canada's major cities.

rousseau said it best: We're not a footballing nation. Maybe in a couple of generations as Canada changes?
