With the high concentration of teams in Toronto (and it's central location), that would be the ideal location for one. I say we meet half way and host one there together
And 6 different Canadian teams going to IRI. The demand is definitely there, but with the lack of teams near North Bay the feasibility isn't great. Many Canadian teams didn't even have a travel regional, nevertheless a travel offseason event because of both Toronto events, Waterloo, and Montreal are where most teams are located. Ideally an off-season would be near one of these locations.
