[2023 WWC] Canada vIreland

Céad míle fáilte to our aficionados! The latest episode in our series on the 2023 Womens' World Cup covers the July 26 Group B faceoff between the Dominion of Canada and the Republic of Ireland.

Two nations with a complex common history with England, as well as some interesting conflicts between them...but not really between each other.

We delve into the Irish diaspora in Canada's Maritime provinces (and feature some related music), the Fenian Raids, where Irish independence advocates invaded Canada, as well as of course the footy matchup.

Thanks for tuning in, and we look forward to watching the game with you!
