Yes Canadian teams certainly should get the benefit of the doubt especially with a strong dollar. And probably not a lot of calls for the team to be moved as the owner hasn't indicated any intentions of wanting to move or not own the team (the opposite actually) and even if the losses are true, which most people think they aren't, they aren't close to the situations of NJ or Phoenix where the owners could't pay the bills.
There also have been a lot of critical posts in this thread about Ottawa as a sports city and the arena situation similar to posts in the NJ and Phoenix threads.
