The fans of the True North had no issue with the double blue and white scheme while the franchise existed. I am sure they would be fine with just having a franchise back (should it be accepted).

following on from Craegus designs in Winnipeg. big shoes to fill. i just went back and saw you went down the fighter plane path (blitz were going down that way) so i may just change my mascot. Is that ok?

The True North were never fighter plane based. They were compass/nordic/aurora based.

However we have had other teams which were.

Thank you for the post SarahSmiles , I don't completely disbelieve this, but if possible a post from his account would be better confirming this as I have no proof that this is a message that is 100% on his behalf. A PM explaining things if there are other reasons that cannot be posted on here will also be accepted.

Congratulations to the above teams and owners SunsphereParker BringBackTheAnchor exile Bowakawa tigerz18 for being accepted to the Canadian-American Premiership for 2021. The OP has been updated with your franchises, and for some your likely conferences (subject to change pending any further bids). The other franchises will be placed in conferences once more teams are confirmed, or closer to the opening of entry submissions.

On another note, we are still waiting on EagleOz and Spanna_ to confirm or fold their franchises.

Finally bids are still open for anyone else who wishes to bid for a franchise.

P.S. new franchisees, your entry fees of US$150M are also now due. For some strange reason the Can-Am organisation is slightly light on funds at the moment, and your fees will help fill the bank again.
