There are some things I do like about soccer. The international competitions are truly global whereas most other sports are usually dominated by a few nations in international competition. I also like the idea of tiers of competition where certain teams face off at the highest level of tournaments and then there is a tier lower and a tier beneath that.
I do think the biggest international matches say in the World Cup can be very interesting to follow but there are other sports I would much rather watch. Now having sats on the games do make them more interesting to follow but I still don't really watch, I just keep the stream going and listen for anything exciting happening.
It would be great if Cricket was more popular in Canada. I would like to go see a game live.
I too like global status and countries competing against each other. It's not money that should make a game popular but it's the global appeal and reach. Soccer is such a game.
Some games for Canada are already scheduled in King City in mid June https://www.espncricinfo.com/team/canada-17/match-schedule-fixtures-and-results
I hope it's not much far from you.
There's one more in Toronto which has hosted international games and there are few more that have hosted some national games.

I kinda agree with you. I too don't like Soccer that much and after watching NBA games recently, I can say that it's a better game to watch.
However as Soccer brings legs into play than any other sports, I can't see it'll face a challenge to its top rank as team sports.
