As is happening throughout the world, American culture is killing off other cultures. I think Canadians should stand tough against what is in a way economic Imperialism (never mind free trade, Bushy has done all that stuff to take away NAFTA, so why shouldn't Canadians protect what is Canadian?). I think CIS has to prop the Canadian game up from the bottom up. Just like the NCAA has for American football and the NFL. Pump money into the game at the lower levels and have Canadians excited about the game at all levels, not just CFL. (there is going to be no more trickle down (CFL to the rest of Canada). I'll step off my high horse... It would be a shame if the CFL were to die. As is happening throughout the world, American culture is killing off other cultures.

Even if the Bills should eventually move to Canada, that is still just one team. Unless the NFl decides to expand to a world league (which I think yould be stupid!), there will always be a demand for other football leagues.

There aren't enough semi-professional leagues to play in these days. First NFLE, now CFL? Damn, I hope not. There aren’t enough semi-professional leagues to play in these days. First NFLE, now CFL?

It's as simple as that. The question is: do you have the balls to do it? hey, you want to ensure the long term future of the CFL in TO w/o the NFL: You have to pressure the Canadian gov’t to pass laws to prevent the upward expanscion of the NFL.
