Given the lack of a distinct geographical team, people seemed to be free agents unless converted by their parents. There did seem to be a general lack of interest in the West teams, but I think that was mostly because of even more of a time difference... I rarely ever saw the Flames when I was younger.

I disagree, I'd say 40% are Habs fans, 40% Leafs fans, 5% Bruins, 5% Rangers, 5% Red Wings, 5% Other. 4 out of every 5 people would be either Habs or Leafs. As for the Flames . . . the number is so small it actually shows up as 0%. Port Hood would have some Flames fans, but most would have changed over to Blues.

My question is this: Would Nova Scotia or any of the maritime provinices offer any kind of incentives for a small business like mine to relocate there?
