2022 World Cup is in Qatar, Nov. 20 to Dec. 18; Canada vs. Belgium on Wednesday, 11 a.m. Pacific time
That hasn’t stopped fans from the Island being among thousands of Canadians who have converged in the region for Canada’s first appearance at the World Cup since 1986.
“Always mixed emotions for me watching World Cups knowing I missed a chance early in my career,” Keith said from the United Arab Emirates, where he is staying. “I am super proud of the Island boys [Lowery, George Pakos and Ian Bridge] and the role they played in ’86 and beyond. However, I definitely got the better end of the deal having my surgery and all that it has brought me and wouldn’t change a single thing.
Because Qatar is full, Keith, Klitsie and their respective wives, Kelly and Debbie, are staying in Abu Dhabi, like thousands of other fans, and flying in for the Canada games.
