I heard that Hockey’s popularity in Canada is waning, especially among the immigrant population, and the white liberals, who see it as the sport for “rednecks”.

There’s probably some truth to that. Interestingly, hockey participation is growing in the U.S. and shrinking in Canada for the same reasons related to demographics and socioeconomics. The sport is migrating back to its 19th century roots as a sport for wealthy prep school elites.

Yep. Eventually cricket and soccer will be more popular.
