Are you even really a fan if you don’t have a complex hierarchy of rooting interests?

Ultimately, fans don’t have to choose just one team — they can support all the teams that represent their cultural heritage and the Canadian squad as it makes history.

Cheer for whoever the fuck you want except for in games that involve canada.

Cheer for canada during their games, even if it is against the country that you or your ancestors came from...
