If anyone was still under the misapprehension that Canada is an equal partner in the upcoming World Cup, FIFA disabused them of that notion shortly after noon on Saturday.
Friday’s draw determined who would play whom, and when. But for the first time, it did not decide where.
That was left to an opaque process of FIFA’s own. They took 24 hours to think about it, and then they shafted Canada. It was a gentle shafting, but a shafting nonetheless.
Someone will make money off the tax payers footing the bill for this scam.
