I entirely support this. There would be a drop in play for these three clubs, but a
proper national league system with promotion/relegation is critical.
For the game to thrive in Canada, I firmly believe this must happen.
- CPL: 10-14 team professional Tier 1 league. Includes TFC, Impact, Whitecaps, Fury, Edmonton along with Hamilton, Winnipeg, Halifax and any other new teams created with the inception of the CPL to begin.
- Canadian Soccer Association: 10-team Tier 2 league. Should be pro.
- League 3 12-16 teams. Possibly amateur.
This type of setup is what gets us things like larger youth involvement or increased CONCACAF Champions League Berths.
