Seems, according to the other article that was posted, that Winnipeg was also against the earlier effort twenty years prior. Primary reasons, the ratio and ecconomics. Didn’t feel that the league would survive competing with the big money in the US. Had those teams managed to get strong support, they would have been correct.
