Our section dedicated to the on again, off again (mostly Toronto centred) fascination with bringing an NFL franchise to Canada.
A topic that has popped up on the Canadian Football radar since the 1970's (when Montreal was the anticipated domino for Canadian football) but as of yet has provided for little more than exhibition football and the odd regular season game in Toronto.
