Official Website: canadasoccer.com Description: Canadian soccer has historically been closely interwined with that of its southern neighbors. Many leagues have spanned borders and continue to do so today, with Toronto FC's entry into Major League Soccer and a number of Canadian clubs competing in the lower divisions of US leagues. An all-Canada league existed from the mid-80s to mid-90s but was unable to survive. It is hoped that Toronto FC's entry into MLS will be a launching pad for improved performance by the national team. Although popular in Canada's large immigrant community and gradually making headway elsewhere, the sport is still dwarfed in popularity by the national sport of ice hockey, Canadian football and even baseball and basketball.
