Official statement from Canada Soccer
As highlighted in our Strategic Plan 2014-2018 Leading a Soccer Nation released in January 2014, the Canadian Soccer Association (Canada Soccer) is committed to encouraging the growth of the game in our country and governing it professionally, in collaboration with our various partners.
As such, Canada Soccer has ongoing conversations with all professional leagues in Canada and North America, building valuable strategic business relationships and sharing our organisation’s vision for the growth of soccer. Although still in the exploratory stage, our dealings with these organisations within the sport and soccer communities have been positive. Further information will be shared as tangible developments are made.
Canada Soccer’s focus remains fixed on the key priorities outlined in the Strategic Plan 2014-2018 and will continue to build towards becoming a leading soccer nation.
