The University of North Dakota Marching band will be playing at halftime on Friday.Is it just me or does that seem a little tone deaf to what is going on in the world this week. Friday is military appreciation game. Do we not have any Canadian military bands that could have played. Why are we rewarding a Trump state like North Dakota? The fact we are [playing Montreal makes this decision even worse.

I think its fine.  The current political landscape will change.  The ties between the two nations will always be strong.  Just a bump in the road.

Yes would have prefered local or Cdn.

Horrible decision to bring in a band from a nation that is trying to destroy us. North Dakota is very MAGA as well (look up how heavily they vote Republican). Club should cancel them. I'll be phoning the club in the morning to complain.

There's a recent article from 3 Down Nation about some unruly Ti-Cats fans treating some fans from South of the border poorly. We don't want to be those people.

Was it a good decision to bring them in? Not really. But is it their fault? Not at all.

Give them a reason to think we're worth coming back to.
