Theoretically Halifax is large enough to support the team. But over the years drawing over 20k people on a constant basis isn't easy. I have my doubts about Halifax but for Moncton it is a totally unrealistic scenario AT THIS TIME.

"the team"
is the team in the room with us right now, Elly?
There is no "team", just 40+ years of chatter, and no new stadium in Halifax.
I think it's naive to think many, if any, New Brunswicker's will support a Halifax CFL team simply because it's called an "Atlantic" team, rather than being called a Halifax team or a Nova Scotia team.
