Canada's national foot-ball team wrapped up a three-day training camp on Thursday in Ottawa and are heading this weekend for Montreal where they will face the Reggae Boyz in a friendly international on Monday.
Canada won their last match against Jamaica1-0 in Toronto in 1999, and Trinidad and Tobago-born Stephen Hart - recently appointed interim coach - is having his first outing in charge of the senior national Canadian team.
He said the players are ready and embracing a rare inter-national outing in Montreal.
"I think everyone is looking forward to this game," said Hart, a former Canada National Under-17 coach.
"There has not been a senior national team men's game in Montreal for many years and that just adds to the anticipation," added Hart, who was given the job in July following the departure of Frank Yallop in June.
Hart, who has been in Canada for the past 26 years, played for Texaco in Trinidad and Tobago's National Football League and the San Fernando Strikers in the local Premier League.</DIV>
