Canadians want NHL teams in Winnipeg, Quebec City
But poll finds they don’t want the government to pay to make it happen
A majority of Canadians would like to see the NHL return to Quebec City and Winnipeg according to an Angus Reid poll. The survey found 62 per cent of respondents thought it would be a good idea to add a team in the Manitoba capital, while 57 per cent were similarly warm to the thought of adding a team in Quebec City. However, Canadians don’t want public funds to be spent on doing so: 57 per cent rejected the idea taxpayer money should go to help relocate an NHL franchise in Canada, with only 35 per cent of Canadians saying they’d be open to the idea.
