I'd argue that Canada should have a Tier 2 or Tier 3 regional league as a national league in conjunction with similar US leagues, with promotion to the MLS (or relegation to lower Canadian leagues) possible.
So how does Toronto and Vancouver have an advantage?

Any league in Canada will be strictly regulated/governed in spending. A team in Corner Brook would have the same salary cap as Edmonton....
