Summary
We kick off another new week on the Tall Can Audio podcast speaking to long time CBC reporter Tom Harrington about the upcoming FIFA World Cup where Canada will host alongside Mexico and the United States. Tom has extensive experience covering Olympics, World Cups and other major sports competitions so we pick his brain on what this is going to look like for the people of Toronto and Vancouver, how the current geo-political climate could become a factor, what sort of lasting impact the event could have on Canadians and whether this was a worthwhile endeavour to have gotten involved in. Later we take the opportunity to discuss what the likelihood of Canada bidding to host another Winter Olympics might be and if it's a good idea. It's a fun conversation to start the week so make sure you don't miss out on this one.
