I'm sure FIRST Canada (knowing some of the people who are a part of it) have thought of all the teams who might not return if they don't find sponsors. I just wanted to hear about who is the sponsor for these teams and how long we can expect that money to last.

Awesome work FIRST Canada, that is like the insane Washington and MN team growth in the past few years.

I would bet some of them are sponsored by United Technologies through Pratt & Whitney Canada which is in Montreal (Technically the Mirabel Suburb). Also Bombardier has many facilliteis around the city for their various divisions including their airframe division that mkes the Canadair Regional Jets and will make the C-Series planes.
