Ah, so you have made your choice. I thought perhaps it would be Valour but I guess Cavalry does make a bit more sense for you, and HFX are everybody's second team. Anyway, you will represent the CPL with colours!

I haven’t actually made my choice, and may not actually make one. 

And Valour actually makes the most sense. I’m in Winnipeg for work very often and am closest to it (570ish kms vs 750ish kms to Calgary). 

Besides, having purchased one item from each of three teams, I’m not sure that clarifies anything. ?

Pile of Bones Jersey 

Nothing else will do.

I would contend, the most vaunted thing to wear in that section is something from a team to be.

POB Scarf would be very necessary.

Oooh, and make history as the first person to be banned in CanPL.

A Hamilton streaker could be a public health and safety concern.

I'm not sure if this is the right place for this, but if anyone wants to meet up and try and get a viewing party somewhere in St. John's, NL, message me. I'm 100% going to be finding a way to watch this game with some friends.

A better idea would to be to get to Halifax and hop on a cheap flight to Hamilton, my daughter is flying from Halifax to Hamilton for $130 return,

There’s some cheap flights from Halifax to Hamilton.  I’m planning on going to at least 1 Halifax game this year with my wife.  Make a weekend out of it and see some family out there.

Good call, we will probably have a viewing party for the occasion in Victoria.

You know we’ll be all in for that!?‍♂️ This is gonna be a real fun day, we look forward to seeing you there!

[hamiltonfan]

This match will be an absolute party! Bob Young and the Hamilton staff will be putting on a real football celebrations.

Hopefully we can bust out a few of our Canada flags to add to the environment.

I'm no longer a 'maybe'.  I'm 100% coming for this and I can't wait!

Of coarse that $135 flight is now $240.  Ugh.

scratch that.  I'm an idiot and put the wrong dates in.  Phew!

[mtlsab]

I will be there for sure, probably coming with other Mtl mates!

And now it's official. Tickets booked with Via Rail to Toronto, will (hopefully) figure out how the GO Train works. Count me in!

Next step is to contact James Hutton and actually get the match tickets. Has anyone gone through this process already? I mostly just want to know which will be the most lively rows to be in.

The Westbound GO Train runs every half hour out of Union to Aldershot, there you get on a bus for a short ride to the Hunter Street GO Station in Hamilton!

I don’t think single game tickets are available yet so I think he is only creating a list at this moment. 

There is also a GO bus from Union to Hamilton that I used in October and was inexpensive and simple ... took an hour I think.

Thanks for the tips, gents. This is going to be one hell of a good time.

Take the direct bus from Union station to the Hunter Go Station. Way more comfortable and far fewer stops! (Unless traveling in rush hour when it's slower).

[baulderdash77]

I agree with Maurader.  Easiest way is Union Station to Hunter St Go station.  It’s a relaxing coach and no hastle.

This is going to be a great event for anyone on the fence.  A bit of history but also a good time.

[MtlMario]

I will be attending and hopefully bring at least 6 others. Can't wait.

[m-g-williams]

As it sounds like there'll be a decent contingent leaving from Union Station via GO transit, should we maybe meet up and form a convoy?
