But yes, there is a "population" (size tbd or debatable) in the city of Montreal who would much rather watch a Team Quebec play than a Team Canada. For sure, 100% true, in fact I know some of these people personally. Finding it really hard to believe, assuming that you live in this country, that you are finding it hard to believe that this would be the case? Quebec sovereignty is one of the most frequently debated political topics in this country, for like decades..............

Sorry my friend, but if you don't understand the above then you are very very guilty of what you are accusing me of.
Again, I'm in no mood to argue so I'll respond once then PM me if you want to continue and we will another day.

Obviously there is a group of people in Quebec that aren't Patriotic (there are groups in every Province btw). Id have to live under a rock to not realize that. To suggest that is the reason they aren't selling games out in Montreal is ignorant.

To put is as simple as I can. If a large group, big enough to impact ticket sales to these games, in Montreal would rather cheer for a team called the Québécois, then why wouldn't they change the name of the Canadiens to the Québécois?

As I type this a "Canada" chant starts out at the Bell Center. If you have anything more to add PM me, otherwise let's drop your language issues please.
