Quebec is the province least interested in Major League Baseball

According to a study by the Angus Reid Institute, Quebec is the province in Canada that is least interested in Major League Baseball (MLB). Just 11% of Quebecers say they watch MLB closely or very closely, significantly lower than the Canadian average of 21%.

In Quebec, Major League Baseball is the third least popular professional sports league after Major League Soccer (MLS) at 9% and the National Basketball Association (NBA) at 8%.

The study found that those in Ontario (31%) and the Atlantic provinces (25%) were the most interested in Major League Baseball. (For the complete table of results, please see page 2 in the report here.)
