But I thought the league didn't like the Maritimes teams?
Seriously, the Major in the name doesn't make any sense. Time to include the Maritimes in the name! I hope the owners make the right decision. It says in the article that before it was Gilles Courteau who wasn't keen about making the change.

QAOQHL: Quebec and Only Quebec Hockey League
I'm kidding, but it's ridiculous that this hasn't been done yet, especially when we've won the league what? Four Memorial Cups? We're pulling our weight for the league, at least acknowledge it in the name of the league.

I think Courteau had the old man mood. Old men don't like change.

I'm kinda surprised by the feedback on social media from Quebecers. A lot generally seem in favor of the change.
Others are really dramatic with it and you'd swear the Maritime teams held a gun to the league demanding they take Quebec out of the name.
Hopefully it's the first step towards better equality among the two regions in the league. It may not be rigged, but there definitely is some imbalance.

But I do love seeing fans across the league cheering on the change. And I doubt it gets seen but my reply to him sums it up nicely. |

I think Courteau had the old man mood. Old men don't like change. Pretty clear Corteau had a hard line against the name change. It's unfortunate the league owners allowed their leader to be someone who clearly viewed the maritime teams as lesser members. |
