Attention all Canadian MMA fans

This thread went funny from the get go.
But since it has turned into an informative thread about how to watch non PPV events in Canada and General Canadian MMA topics.

New as of March 25th

Does anyone know when the UFC is actually going to come to Canada. There was talk about UFC 80 being in Montreal in January however I read an article on Sherdog saying UFC 80 is going to be in England. Does anyone know anything else about a possible date in Canada

Probably right after Hockey season and playoffs. Aka early spring.
Form what I have heard they want the Montreal Canadians Stadium for it so it probably depends if they make it to the play-offs or not.
