“I want to congratulate Richard and the BCF team involved, as well as William and his colleagues at EY, for their passion and devotion for the benefit of the Montreal community.

In the coming months, the Montreal group will be sharing the findings of these consultations as well as the results of the market study with MLB. While the process remains complex and is still ongoing, the Montreal group remains firmly committed to bringing back an MLB franchise to the first city in Canada to ever have an MLB team.
