I know. Leaving the US in the dust. There's already way more sponsorship potential in Canadian rally, if they pull off a WRC event it'll be huge!
I mean right now I can say to sponsors, hey I have a bunch of friends on Instagram and Facebook that all 2000 will see this shit! Or I can say, I'm going to Canada and they broadcast on TV to millions.
The international visitors alone will swamp area hotels.

To be fair... as I understand it rally cross in Quebec uses is codrivers, has transits, and share more of a structure with rally than not. Arguably closer to rally sprint than typical grass-o-cross.

Maybe, but it is arguably a better 'training ground' for stage rally than the normal Navigational rally and/or grass-o-cross.
Quebec has always been a stronghold of Rally in Canada, next year half of the Canadian Championship will be in Quebec. (4 of 8 events)

Probably is even if young Vincent will likely never make that next step. I loved the Colorado Hill Climb series for preparing for rally. I really like the Kananaskis format the most!
50% in Quebec, 37.5% in BC? Is RMR in BC technically? I'm planning to try to do all the west events but my plans go haywire so often we will see...

CRC will be 'score six, max three from any one region.
Yes, RMR is in BC, but that maxes out the three that can be counted for the championship. A move back to Alberta wouldn't change much.
