Brampton versus the world: How the sprawling city produced the core of Canada’s World Cup teamOn Sunday, coach John Herdman will name his final 26-man squad for Canada’s return to the biggest stage in soccer. Over a quarter of them will be from Brampton. Those Chinguacousy boys have been tough for 50 years. I will not be watching not due to the sport itself but the location.
