    When an American team wins the championship in a major sport, they visit the President. When it's a Canadian team, do they pay a visit to the Governor General, or the Prime Minister?

    		It is a similar tradition for the Prime Minister of Canada to invite the winners, if it is a Canadian team that wins, to Ottawa (however, no Canadian team has won the Cup since the Montreal Canadiens in 1993).
