I’ve had confirmation from the Montreal Impact that this is so, however some sources in Toronto have suggested to me the possibility of a late postponement remains very real.

If there is an intention on the players’ part to strike however, it could be that by TFC travelling all the way to Montreal then having the game called off at last minute would maximize exposure for the protest movement.

We shall see, but it’s certainly all…
