I've been recently speaking with some people who are preparing to shoot a feature length documentary about the 86 Canadian squad. Should be interesting, and I can't wait to eventually see it.

I always thought that the '86 event was worth documenting for our history. This is the first I have ever heard of any formal movement. I can't wait!

Nice find! A remarkably well-informed article on Canadian soccer considering it was written by someone in the UK (assuming it was, that is).
