CanPL 2019: In Memoriam
There were a million ways this whole endeavour could have failed even in year one. That it not only survived but succeeded is nothing short of a Canadian soccer miracle.
CanPL
Bent, Ruby, and more from the 2019 USPORTs draft
The inaugural CanPL/USPORTs draft presented a completely clean slate. Draftees were actually the first players formally affiliated with the new clubs, and many went on to have a lot of success. That, in turn, increased both expectation and attention for the 2019 draft.

Expect more Wanderers FC departures

Here we all are at the end of the road. This afternoon (or tonight, on CBC), somebody gets the keys to the castle.
CanPL Final Leg 1 (Oct. 26, 2019)
The league began in a Tim Hortons, and so it will end in one.
Jumping the Gun: Michael Silberbauer out at Pacific

York9 v. Wanderers (Oct. 19, 2019)

Wanderers v. Pacific (Oct. 9, 2019)
Amongst a string of games that don’t really matter comes one that does. All season, Wanderers’ main story has been the support off the field rather than the play on it, and tonight is a chance to indulge that in a way that doesn’t feel like a distraction.
Cavalry v. Wanderers (Oct. 5, 2019)
Surprisingly, these two teams have played some close games this year, mainly in Halifax. Whether Wanderers can deliver a similar performance on the road has been the devil of their season.
