You did not even have to look to the US to find such comments. These were commonplace in the Toronto media.
Media Elitism?. The Americanization of Pro Hockey?. Excellent courses being offered at the Balsillie School of International Affairs not far down the road from you their Fourier. I have fond memories of Professor Richard Rodier's lectures; "Rage Against the Machine", "Techno Libertarianism For All Mankind" and the follow-up, "A Blackberry in every Pot".
I'm not "deifying" Balsillie, I'm simply giving him credit for one thing, that's he would almost certainly be an owner who would be passionate about having an NHL franchise.
Sure. Provided it's located in the Elysian Fields of home, bringing in a harvest richer than the fields of QC, Pittsburgh, Nashville, Phoenix......
Do you have some news Headlines (or some other source) from back then to support that claim?
Fraid not. My analyst recommended I drop the internet subscription's to the Toronto Star & Globe&Mail Archival Departments. Something about it being unhealthy if not downright dangerous to drive through life with both eyes on the rear-view mirror. Bad enough I had no hands on the wheel, but thats another story.
