Why is this taking so long? It’s a no brainer! Cancel CanadaSoccerEN
Ridiculous if you want support in Canada well get your shit together.
Almost sold out means people want to see it
Football promotes peace and brings nations together, the undersigned would support and like to thank the Canadian Soccer Association for hosting a friendly between Canada and Team Melli in Vancouver.
politicalization of sport by Zionist elemnt in Canadian politic . CBC is misleading Canadian and promoting political propaganda under false claim of Human rights since none of the Iran national team been affilated with the Government.
Should be an interesting game.
It’s football, sport should not have politics and religion involved in it
ps752justice They better be. They will have a significant presence of iranian canadians against this sport in BC and probably at the same time here in Toronto. It is a disgrace to all of us Canadians to see a friendly match set up with murderers of our own people.
400k that could go to another club, victims families, youth soccer etc
To people who think this money would go to the innocent Iranians: You have no clue about Iran! You are so naive thinking this money would not be used to fund more murders, torture and rape the same innocent Iranian you are trying to defend! You don't know how IR gov works!
So we are paying a group who represent a nation that deliberately shot down a passenger jet then lied about it. We a paying a group who represents a nation who has state sponsored rape, killing of protestors,killing of politicians, sponsors terrorists. (Con’t)
Can we lose these ridiculous double standards Iran isn't a threat to Canada soccer can't be weaponized, Americans caused the airliner incident with their unprovoked missile attack, stop the hysterics and get a grip. GetAGrip
Call it off! It is disrespectful. It is offensive!
Saudi Arabia or Israel would be fine, though, as opponents.
Good God. It’s a soccer team. Why stir this hate ? Players have to get paid. Planes hotels by players have to be paid. Jezzzzz CBC do better.
The layers to this story is mind boggling, I’d like to comment but don’t know where to start.
Or…..Canada is supporting health activity and lifestyle for Iranians at the grass roots level, supporting a better future for the next generation through sport Also, you’re our national broadcaster, you used to know stirring up controversy ain’t news
Canada loves to punish the regular people of a country for the failings of their government, so this tracks.
So dumb, they need to practice against WC calibre team's. It's the soccer team not a hit squad.
This is great.
Wow somebody at Soccer Canada is completely tone deaf and needs to clean out his or her desk and resign or get fired. What a dumb indefensible decision. Whom8s next, North Korea?
JustinTrudeau cafreeland this is what my tax dollars are paying for? disgusting
