History
In 1999, the first USA v Canada game was played 49th Parallel Cup (named after the 49th parallel north). The Revolution narrowly defeated Team Canada (Northwind).
Later matches enforced strict rules based on player origins.
The 2010 49th Parallel Cup was apparently held in Toronto, Canada on the long weekend of 31st of July - 2nd August.
