It looks like Jay and Dan could be coming home to Canada.
As reported by John Ourand of the Sports Business Journal on Thursday morning, Fox Sports 1 decided to cancel Fox Sports Live, the show that the Canadian sports anchors host.
FS1 cancels "Fox Sports Live;" Jay and Dan's contracts not likely to be renewed. Story coming in SportsBusiness Daily.

In turn, it looks like they won’t be renewing the contracts of Jay Onrait and Dan O’Toole once their contracts end in March.
America’s loss is Canada’s gain and it didn’t take long for the Canadian sports world to jump all over the news, starting a mini-Twitter campaign to bring the beloved duo back north.
No official news has been released, as there are still a few days left in their contracts with Fox Sports 1, but the dream to bring Jay and Dan back to Canada is more realistic than it’s ever been since they left for the sunshine of Los Angeles in 2013.
While we wait for some official news on the matter and hopefully a hiring announcement from TSN or Sportsnet, here are some of the best Twitter reactions to Thursday’s news.
Let's hope #JayandDan come home and they announce it on #Tradecentre . Be the best acquisition on TradeCentre EVER #ComeHomeJayandDan

TSN has never replaced Jay and Dan with anyone worth watching. Hoping the boys make their triumphant return to Canada! @JayAndDan
