SARDINHA, João. Identity negotiations of luso-descendants in Canada through Portuguese football and Canadian ice hockey. Etnográfica [online]. 2012, vol.16, n.1, pp.143-162. ISSN 0873-6561.
This paper examines the ways descendants of Portuguese immigrants in Canada, raised under the shroud of their Portugal ancestry, contemplate, formulate and negotiate their identities via the two primary sporting pastimes of the two countries: soccer, in the case of Portugal; ice hockey, in the case of Canada. The findings presented in this article are based on empirical data collected through semis-structured interviews and casual conversations with Portuguese-Canadian descendants during a fieldwork period that took place from October 2nd to November 5th of 2009 in the Canadian cities of Toronto, Ottawa-Gatineau and Montreal.
