Canada’s Mens National Soccer Team qualified for the 2022 World Cup in Qatar after beating Jamaica 4-0 at BMO Field. It’s the second time the mens team had qualified - first time since 1986. I’m totally a bandwagon jumper since the final 8 CONCACAF qualifying began. I’ve always followed the...

I found this TD Centre handout at my father-in-laws. He toured the observation gallery with a cousin visiting from Netherlands sometime in the late 60's (there's a photo of them with the city behind that probably has the date on the back that I forgot to take).

Sorry if this was posted elsewhere. Source I think it's kinda funny, although having the Vancouver Olympics logo on it raises my eyebrow a bit. As the article says, nothing unites Canadians more than slagging Toronto, but maybe not at this time leading up to the Olympics being held here...
