Review: Who Killed the Montreal Expos?

Filmmaker Jean-François Poisson explores the loss of the Montreal Expos and the US-Canada divide in his documentary.

The Montreal Expos' relocation to Washington D.C. in 2005 created a void in Canadian sports that remains unfilled. Despite this, Expos hats are still worn by baseball fans, and with Major League Baseball due for expansion, the question of Montreal's potential involvement persists.

He wants to know why they left in the first place, and who is to blame.
