Canada were defeated 51-9 by the New Zealand Māori on Friday evening at BC Place but there was plenty of room to cheer for Canadian fans as a record 29,480 showed up to enjoy the rugby spectacle. Vancouver photographer Stewart Johnstone was among those in attendance and was able to capture the action from the sidelines. Below is a selection of his shots from the day. More of Stewart’s work from this game and elsewhere can be seen at his website here.
