Hire people based on qualifications, not what is written on a birth certificate.

Rick Fox's acting career doesn't seem to be going anywhere so maybe he's up for a career change?

Re: Canadian GM
we should have an all-Canadian lineup as well.
maybe have an Enbridge Gas contest to fill out our line-up?

or the Raptor can be our GM. really quiet but liked by all. can dunk off a trampoline. and it would be cool to say the Raptors' GM is the Raptor.

Up-or-down voice votes...majority rules. Additionally, the beaver will handle scouting; the Mountie will handle marketing; the caribou will handle team-to-team negotiations; Celine Dion will handle the team's finances; the maple syrup will run press conferences and public functions.
Finally, management we can truly get behind.
I like your ideas eh!
But Glen Grunwald (although not born of Canadian descent) became a Candian citizen in 1999. He was our GM from 1998-2004.
So hire GG back?

Leo is a joke,kicking of Dalembert for no apparent reason. lack of knowlege of basketball,face it most canadians are hockey oriented,the next gm gotta have a real basket ball backround and knowlege.

Nash will eventually be a coach or Gm, and be really good at it.
Thats about it.
Canada doesn't give a **** about basketball. Only Toronto does, and sadly, 99.9999 percent of people from Toronto are horrible at basketball.

Re: Canadian GM
How would a Canadian GM make anymore of a difference than a American GM? It doesn't matter where he's from, as long as he knows his basketball is the main point.
And I wouldn't want a rookie GM from Canada to take over this team. It would be disastrous...
