Montreal, TO and Edmonton are going to have to spend a ton of money on their stadiums, since FIFA won't play World Cup games on anything other than natural grass and BMO Field doesn't have nearly enough seats. Canada is getting 10 games, but I'd wager based on stadium issues alone, that most of those will be Group Stage games. Would you pay big bucks to watch a Group game between Morocco and Croatia at B.C. Place Stadium? Thought not.
Besides I wouldn't get too bent out of shape over it. There's eight years before 2026, and FIFA has been known to change its mind (sic). Some B.C. Government will stars in its eyes will cough up millions to renovate B.C. Place and re-open the discussion. What FIFA wants, FIFA gets.
