I haven't been watching the comp seen for that long(only a few months) but I was wondering will LCS or Worlds ever come to Canada?

Canadians are already part of the NALCS so we wont get our own league. as far as worlds go, If it was held in the states one of the days might be in Canada, but as far as the entire tournament taking place, Canada doesn't have a large enough presence in LOL to really warrant it.

Canada is more then Toronto. Canada consistently is 10% of pro NA players they could easily make a pro Canadian team that be a top NA team. 10% my not seem high but the fact all these imports are replacing USA players and not Canadians is the most impressive part. USA players need to get their act together if they wanna stay relevant. Canada has about as large a presence as top USA players that matter. Cause all your weak USA players get replaced by imports.

as for OP it is unlikely but possible.

No where i my comment did I mention Toronto, the travel distance between major canadian cities is at minimum 2 hours ( if you count Kingston/Toronto (This discounts cities counted in the GTA, primarily Hamilton) or (Montreal/QC) or (Edmonton/Calgary) or even (Victoria/Vancouver, that one might be shorter, never been), to have an event based in Canada would limit it to these pairs unless you want the teams to be traveling distances of greater than 5 hours..... I did not realize that 10% of the pro NA players were Canadian, however I would be interested to know if in NALCS if a Canadian counts as an import or not (Due to requiring a VISA to play in the states).
