We would have gotten Canada's group in the World Cup playing in our country. I believe that they were either looking at 16 groups of three teams each. There's 6 games (two per country), which would have left four games left. As host countries are put in the pot in the first group, it's unlikely we would have gotten a great team to watch like Spain or Germany. I don't think that's worth the money it would cost.
Unless you hosted the entire event in your country, I don't see the point in hosting. If you listen to the rumours, Morocco has the support of all the countries in Asia and Africa which would be more than enough to award them the games. For me, there's too much corruption surrounding the bid process for me to have any faith in a bid being judged fairly.
