Dear Atiba,
From the moment we first saw you play for Canada in January 2003, we were sure of one thing:
We fell in love with your game.
You led us through the dark times
When no one believed
And inspired a country with hope.
Every time you’ve donned the national team crest
You’ve given your all.
We don’t know how much you’ve got left to give
But we’ll cherish every last moment there is.
