Any serious candidates for naturalization?

[xcalibre]

Not that I want us to become like Qatar or other national teams that rely on a lot of imports, but if there's a player or two out there that we can get Canadian citizenship by 2016 we should think about using them. Even if it doesn't work out and they only get a cap, it's worth a try.

I believe FIFA have a blanket rule is 5 years? I don't expect any of these players to play for us, and I'm not suggesting any are shoo-ins, but more so just noting their potential eligibility. Let me know if anyone's already cap-tied and I'll take them out.
