I think it is a tough choice for them. I despise De Guzman for the way he handled everything and was disappointed (and more so shocked) that he actually made a Dutch squad.
But many of these guys have the chance to play for big teams in major tournaments or play for a crappy Canadian team in a couple of qualifying games and then watch those big tournaments on TV.
I think it would be pretty tough to see England, Holland, Chile, Uruguay etc. playing in Copa's, Euro's and WC's while Canada is done before evening reaching the Hex.
That doesn't even factor in the benefit that playing for these countries can have for their career.
