There's the Ralph Cantafio complex where there's land that could be used for a stadium or on the current Winnipeg Blue Bombers grounds A new soccer specific stadium would have to get built
Would the Blue Bombers allow another group to build on their grounds? You've said yourself that building stadiums in Canada is extremely difficult.
The University of Manitoba owns the land not the bombers. The other field seems more feasible as it is operated by the Winnipeg soccer federation. Getting "public funds" into sport infrastructure is difficult - not impossible. If they started with the same approach as Halifax, it's doable. It's not a thing here to get government sink hundreds of millions of taxpayer dollars for brand new stadiums. You start small like BMO Field & Stade Saputo 1.0 and build it up as demand increase Stade Saputo BMO Field

You say Tomato, I say Tomato - suspended/folded. When is the league not actively seeking new investors?
This is....not good. https://www.reddit.com/r/CanadianPL/comments/1pyvi9w/afshin_ghotbi_is_suing_sixfive/ In it, Mr. Ghotbi claims that in 2023 he loaned sixfive half a million dollars at 12% interest, secured on sixfives property as collateral.

Good to see Jonathan David on the scoresheet this past weekend. I saw some Serie A program last week in which they said Jonathan David has been the most disappointing signing of the season. It'll be great if Jonathan can get hot for the second half of the season in order to go into the World Cup with confidence. Also nice to see Ali Ahmed have a nice start to life at Norwich.

My sense of humor is fine, whatever. It's smart marketing hence my comment that it doesn't matter. I'll leave it at that
