[QUOTE="LittleGuy, post: 407572, member: 44360"] With the proportion of English speakers decreasing especially outside of the Montreal area, this news is indeed dissapointing for rugby in Quebec, but I think the points about the gridiron football are key. The Alouettes have one of the best fanbases in the country and the unversity football teams are great draws when compared to many other schools in Canada. Not to delve into anything too political or social but there are many differences between Quebec and the rest of the country beyond just language, which those not from Canada may not realize exist. Often something that is popular in one part will have virtually no following in another. [/QUOTE]
