Friday's match, played in Canada's largest city, comes after the Blue Jays defeated the Bronx team and Mariners to reach the baseball finals.

It also marks the premier high-stakes championship matchup for the both nations since last year's hockey matchup.

Bilateral tensions have lessened in recent months as the national leader, Mark Carney, seeks to strike a economic pact with his unstable negotiating partner, but many ordinary Canadians are continuing to uphold their embargoes of the America and American goods.
