Many Canadians believe that the NFL's plans to play regular-season games in Canada -- and possibly move a team there permanently -- are a threat to the Canadian Football League's very existence. In response, the CFL has launched an ad campaign reminding Canadians, "This is our league":
The commercial itself is cool, but I really don't understand why so many Canadian football fans are freaking out, to the point where elected officials are trying to pass laws to keep the NFL out. Is the CFL really so weak that putting one NFL team in Canada would put the entire league out of business?

So its no big deal that the year before the Ravens exsited that one of their teams was in Baltimore. As well as won the Grey Cup that same year. Lets leave it as it is Canada acting like Canada!!

As an Buffaloian who has watched the situation, I'd have to say yes. It would be like the MLB, if suddenly the Yankees disappeared.
the "Toronto Bills" would take money away from the biggest CFL market in Canada and nearly destroy another one that is half way between Buffalo and Toronto (Hamilton)
