2021 in Canadian soccer
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic in Canada, competitions were greatly altered, either starting late, or being curtailed. Due to border restrictions, many Canadian clubs that participate in soccer leagues with American soccer clubs did not participate, or were forced to play some of their regular season matches in the United States.
