There's two organizations in Calgary that have done barcrafts before, I'll talk to them a bit see if either of them will make it happen. Kinda should know the location first. If it's in Edmonton then it might not make sense to have Barcraft Calgary. (And apparently IEM Edmonton has happened before, but not for starcraft, so that is a possibility). If the people that ran the Ceilie's barcraft aren't interested anymore I bet we can get projectxlans to do it if we show enough support. Another barcraft would be great, or failing that just a meet up somewhere that we can drink. I'd be down for it, schedule permitting. | ||

Next you factor in the proximity to major US cities and other major Canadian cities, and it's obvious it's Toronto. You're almost certainly correct. I'm just foolishly holding out hope that it's somewhere in western Canada. Other things in favor of it being toronto is I'm pretty sure Jarett Cale is from there, and he seems to be IEM's main Canadian connection. And the fan expo too that weekend... Yeah you're right alt signs are pointing that way. It's just weird that they wouldn't say "IEM Toronto" or anything like that. | ||

It's the 3rd largest municipality, and 5th largest metropolitan area in Canada. Plus, people here love esports, there's always barcrafts, and other fun stuff, many many fans! | ||

But it's not happening this time, all signs do point to Toronto... again. | ||

It should be in Montreal, but my money is on TO. if they are really smart they make this event part of this http://www.fanexpocanada.com/ | ||
