Review: Who Killed the Montreal Expos?
Filmmaker Jean-François Poisson explores the loss of the Montreal Expos baseball team and the US-Canada divides in his documentary.
The team's relocation to Washington D.C. in 2005 created a void in Canadian sports that remains unfilled. Despite this, Expos hats are still worn by fans, and discussions about Major League Baseball expansion often raise questions about Montreal's potential involvement.
Poisson's focus is on understanding why the team left and who is to blame. His approach is similar to Kat Jayme's The Grizzlie Truth, which investigated the demise of the Vancouver Grizzlies basketball team.
Poisson wants to know why they left in the first place, and who is to blame.
This documentary takes an investigative approach to explore the circumstances surrounding the team's departure.
