I think it's very ambitious of this guy to try and start a league in Canada, and I genuinely hope he succeeds, but I certainly wouldn't blame him nor fans of cricket in Toronto for simply wanting to acquire a MLC franchise. The average Joe who watches cricket in Toronto isn't thinking about issues of national or civic identity. They're just thinking, "I wish I could watch good competitive cricket in my town." I don't buy the theory that Toronto prefers American leagues to Canadian leagues.
