So the NFL will never have a full time team outside the US.

Also for the pre-season game it is a shortlist of places to hold it in Canada. In fact here it is.
1) Toronto


The NFL does not care about other cities they care about creating viewers so they will go to the biggest market to create them. Maybe, just maybe if they do have a rotation of going to diffrent countries after a few times in Canada they may look at another city. This is just for publicity not to scout cities for the future.
Ding ding ding!!!

Then again Edmonton is probably an attractive destination for the NFL and network TV bigwigs.....so.....
