Montreal: The Tournament, a new mockumentary series for CBC, centers on a small town’s peewee hockey team and the obsessive hockey parents pushing their tiny champs towards an all-important novice tournament in Chateauguay, QC.
The $3.1-million series will kick off Jan. 3, 2005 with a one-hour pilot on CBC primetime followed by five half-hour episodes. The Tournament, currently shooting, brought An American in Canada creator Howard Busgang together with the creators of Just For Laughs to form a new Montreal production company, Adjacent 2 Entertainment.
