Is baseball growing in Canada, or is it not growing enough?
I watch some MLB games in Brazil, but unfortunately I don't follow the specialized media. What is really preventing MLB from expanding to other cities in Canada?

I had never watched lacrosse games before, only some scenes in movies or series, but Disney+ makes ESPN available here in Brazil and I decided to watch PLL, NLL and college games. Although I didn't understand what the commentators were saying (unfortunately I don't speak English), the basics of the sport are quite intuitive and extremely fun to watch, especially the PLL and college (I confess that at first I found the NLL very interesting and intense, but I liked watching the paced game of field lacrosse more).
My question is: For those who live in the United States and Canada, how have you recently perceived the television popularity of lacrosse among people aged 15 to 30? Is there any explanation for why there are so many people watching in the stands at NLL games and not at PLL and college games?
Do you think it's possible to create lacrosse leagues using basketball courts, for example?
Perhaps 5-on-5 (including the goalkeepers)?
