Having confronted Dr. Dennis, Barry Laws, Jr., International Man Of Mystery, 
exclaimed:
 
 DW> Good Luck! We need more canadian teams, as we now seem to be going 
 DW> International in the 2 leagues.
 BLJ> I say give teams to Calgary and Vancouver. They're both represented in
 BLJ> Canadian football, NHL Hockey, and Vancouver has an NBA team. I wonder
 BLJ> what their nicknames would be if they got MLB teams...maybe the
 BLJ> Vancouver Valiants and the Calgary Mustangs (or Calgary Stampede). 
      Vancouver is the only market left in Canada that is large enough 
to have a MLB franchise.  Calgary's population is only about 700,000 
with virtually no satellite communities to speak of.  Vancouver in fact 
is pursuing a MLB franchise.  There is plan in works to convert BC Place 
into retractable roof stadium which could also allow baseball to play 
there.  As for a nickname, I'm rather fond of their PCL name, the 
Canadians....
