Question from your neighbor to the south...if Quebec wins in the Q and they're already the host...who becomes the 4th team?

So Rimouski is in regardless?

It's an interesting event where the host team gets an automatic berth in the main event. How does the selection process work? Do they rotate between the three leagues?

Don't know all the criteria for selection, but teams make a bid to host the event and it is determined by a selection committee. Similar to determining olympic games bids they take a lot of things into consideration, state of the art facility, community/organizational support for the bid, competitiveness level of the team etc.

Yes they rotate as well ..... few years ago there was talk of changes because Saskatoon (iirc ) was the host team but played terribly all season
