On the way home tonight, I was listening to the Fan 590's Bob McCown discussing an initiative to introduce hockey to 'new' Canadians. The last generation was introduced to hockey through 'road hockey', which today is almost unseen due to the by-laws put in place over the last 10 - 20 years. We will soon see a push to eliminate these by-laws across Canada, which will surely see growth to our national sport.
Are pigeon fanciers and our national organizations also ready to fight back? Will green backyards, the re-introduction of poultry, vegetable gardens, and cloths lines within test municipalities help set the stage for us to make the same push?
Food for thought!
