Teaching What NA Means

NA is short for North America, North America is a continent, it has other countries like Canada. Please stop (and Riot casters) making NA mean the United States of America - there are Canadian players in NA teams to (also European, Korean, and Chinese but these are obviously not North American). Also, Canadians do watch and cheer for the NA teams in worlds too.

EDIT: Jatt is a Canadian caster - so we have players, viewers, casters and pro players who are Canadian who represent NA

Sorry, no. NA isn't short for North America. It isn't even short for the United States of America. NA is short for the West Coast. Riot doesn't give an airborne fornication about anybody else here.

As a fellow Canadian player, I feel pretty sad that Riot ignores one of their 2 countries from NA (since Mexico has it's own server now). They could at least acknowledge Canada as a part of NA. Some of the best pro players are Canadian (Wildturtle, Hotshotgg, Theoddone, Shiphtur, Altec) and yet the only recognition of Canada I remember was theoddone holding the Canadian flag on stage...

Link is canadian as well - There is also greenland and cuba- but who actually lives on greenland (there is like one small city) and poor cuba, lives directly below the U.S. and no one acknowledges their existence
