Ottawa is bigger than Calgary, and is right beside quebec. We could hold a big event.

Calgary is larger than ottawa and the average salary in Calgary is higher. I don't even live remotely close to Calgary and I know those stats.

lmfao funny guy. You could pull out as many stats as you want but let's be honest: there's only three cities everyone wants to go to. Montreal, Toronto and Vancouver. Keep pulling out stats, but I doubt anyone would pick **********in' Kingston, Ontario over Montreal.

bigger cities are affected more by those stats because they have larger populations, and more likelihood of crime, unemployment and just plain ol' poverty.

I like how you speak for everyone else, nice assumption. You doubt anyone would pick **********in' Kingston, over Montreal? Bro, not everyone wants to live in massive cities. In Montreal, you could look to your left and see two gay dudes in a window, doing weird gay ****, to your right, bums fighting and antagonizing everyone around them, behind you, white-rich pretentious hipsters (who are also obnoxiously, and frequently drunk). While observing all of this, youre slammed in an extremely crowded downtown.

That may not be everyone's cup of tea.

Kingston is a nice city, with some really cool history. And why wouldn't you come to Ottawa? Don't wanna skate on the world's largest skating rink?





 Don't want to see the most famous building in canada, the Parliament Building?


Don't wanna come to the city with the biggest Canada day celebrations?

Please, everyone knows the most famous building in Canada is the CN Tower.

And no actually, I don't. Montreal is amazing, I wouldn't pick another city to ever live in. Every part about it is amazing, including the amazing ghetto areas.

I have never been to Calgary before so I'm pumped UFC is going be there or else I would have been waiting forever! I have been to Montreal and Ottawa and they were both AMAZING. Ottawa should be up for the next event in Canada after all it is our nations capital.

The press conference is today at 2PM ET on UFC.com

Which Canadian fighter, who never fought for the UFC, do you want to see on the card?

My list:
1. Michel Gagnon
2. Alex Ricci
Can't think of anyone else...
