Would you consider that the World Cup is a sporting event where multiculturalism becomes truly visible rather than just being discussed as a theoretical concept here?

I think so.

I mean, I think if you look at what does multiculturalism look like on the ground? And again, if we use the examples of these global cities here, you see it playing out on the ground, right? And I would say there's different ways that you can see it, both in the fan experience, but also in the actual Canadian national team itself.

I think if you look at Toronto's hosting of the last Portugal game, you know, Toronto has one of the largest Portuguese communities outside of, I think it's Brazil, I think we're next, There's over 10,000 Portuguese fans out on the streets just, you know, wanting to support Portugal.

And there was interviews done with some of the players on the Portuguese national team.

And they were asked, is this normal? Do you get this in other host cities? And they said, no, this is not normal.

We very much appreciate it.

So tell us about this Toronto neighborhood and how you saw participation in soccer affect the everyday integration experience of the youth and the immigrant youth in that community.
