yep, thats true. the only way this could work would be to base the team in windsor but play in detroit, or have the teams voluntarily play half canadians...you can't make it a rule...but like the nhl, teams can play canadian players if they so chose. it would be a system like the soft salary cap the cfl had before the current salary management system(sms). teams could easily decide not to dress the required amount of canadians and the league couldnt legally penalize them. would be interesting, but sketchy.
I would love for there to be more teams in canada, but right now there arent the stadiums to support them. a few american teams in border cities would be kinda cool, as long as they dont try and change the name of the league again. it would have to be with great ownership and stadium deals.
