Has anyone else noticed the irony
Landmarks don't have to be man made.
This is the most famous and it's not even close.
Agreed, I just assumed he meant man made landmarks.

This isn’t Toronto getting behind them. This is one guy who opporates the lights at the CN TowerWell that's pretty classy of them. I wouldn't expect any franchise to put up rival colours, but I can respect Toronto for getting behind another Canadian team.
Maybe. Can you blame them ? LolCN Tower lighting up in Montreal Canadiens colours tonight | Offside
What the heck is going on? Did the city just turn Heel on the Leafs?
Domestically, but I would argue the most famous landmark "in" Canada is this one:
France actually ceeded the land to Canada for perpetual use to construct the monument that we maintain along with the surrounding land. While you don't cross a border to attend the monument it is considered part of Canada.
I'm a Leaf fan, and while I am not a Habs fan, I am still a hockey fan first. You have to be with the Leafs, or else you'd never enjoy hockey, especially playoff hockey. So I do admire some things about the Habs, I like Carey Price and such. Have a bit of a soft spot for Shea Weber, even Corey Perry. But that Habs/Leafs series was about as passionless of a series as they come and just jumping on the bandwagon and cheering for them is just sort of gross. Maybe it wasn't such a bad thing back in the day when John Ferguson would walk out of the Old Spaghetti House if he ever saw Eddie Shack come in. At least there is true animosity there.
Lastly, I'll say this, I don't necessarily like cheering for a team just because they are in Canada. I was cheering for Boston in 2011 vs. Vancouver. If anything, look at the final teams in the race right now and look at their rosters and see who has the most Canadians. I am pretty sure it is either Vegas or Colorado. But either way, pretty much all teams left have at least half of their rosters as Canadians. So I would say the one with the most is sort of Canada's team isn't it?
Why do we have to cheer for a Canadian team? Lets just send 6 teams packing and have one then! This is pathetic.
I often end up cheering for the team that eliminates my team. And I guess I look at rivalries as fun, as opposed to serious hatred.
Speak for yourself. I hate everything Toronto sports related.We love the Jays and Raps. No problem rooting for them.

You don't like cheering for a team just because they are in Canada but you like cheering for a team just because they are in Toronto?
So you associate yourself as a torontonian more than a Canadian?
I don't get the idea that it's ok to cheer for the only team from your city but doesn't make sense to cheer for the only team from your country.
They either both make sense or both don't make sense.
I hate to say it... But I have no idea what that isDomestically, but I would argue the most famous landmark "in" Canada is this one:

But they also immediately turned them off and are currently switching between promoting the Cerebrospinal Fluid Leak Awareness Week and Pride Month. So, you know...The CN Tower's response was to tell Toronto to eat shit.
Jennifer Paige, CN Tower director of marketing and communications, said the tower is federally owned and “operated property that belongs to all Canadians.”
“Primarily, the CN Tower’s lighting helps to raise awareness for registered charities and causes. Our lighting also helps to celebrate Canadian arts, culture and sports. We have lit for Grey Cup champions, we have lit to highlight the achievements of Canadian musicians and performers, and we have helped to cheer on Canadian teams in international sporting competitions.
Maybe he considers himself more of a fan of his hockey team than a fan of the Stanley Cup being won by his rivals? I know, crazy to think. It's almost like the Cup is a club level award.You don't like cheering for a team just because they are in Canada but you like cheering for a team just because they are in Toronto?

you seriously werent on the Raps bandwagon 2 seasons ago? oh well...Speak for yourself. I hate everything Toronto sports related.
