Looks like the start of the season will be in Winnipeg I can confirm that Winnipeg is the location chosen for the CPL bubble tournament and set to start June 26th is what players we're told. Government of Manitoba offerered a significant amount of money to host at IG Field #CanPL— Thomas Nef (@ThomasNef) June 2, 2021
It should be Toronto. I mean, Winnipeg still has other sports playing whereas there is nothing at all (cough Leafs cough) going on for sports in Toronto right now.
If they are in a bubble environment for a month - Winnipeg makes more sense for TV. Investor's Group Field does give you that professional look that will make the league look good. York Lions isn't ready MLSE have the managerial rights to BMO Field...unlikely they let CPL rent BMO Field for a month
York United made some move to complete their squads Loans to Costa Rica's Guadalupe The club has loaned both Lisandro Cabrera and Mateo Hernández to @guadalupefccr until the end of the year."This is a great opportunity to secure a high level of competition while we wait on further developments with their work visas," says @gusmcnab. https://t.co/x6v1Y1tD3V— York United FC (@yorkutdfc) June 2, 2021 Returns from loans including Michael Petrasso We're thrilled to welcome back both @zator94 and @NHamilton9 after their successful loan spells in Sweden and Scotland.

Im watching Pacific vs Wanderers right now.. Marco Bustos just scored. He really has the creativity to help a club like the Whitecaps in the center of the park. He's good enough for MLS. Wanderers are just playing on the counter. Losing Sissoko to Indy Eleven has really hurt their midfield dominance compared to last year.
Easily by far the strongest XI in CPL thus far... They need to face TFC asap for the Canadian Championship It's a Forge FC and CPL debut for @DejanJakovic in central defence, and a second debut for returning CPL all time top goalscorer @tristandborges as coach Bobby announces his line up for the first game of the 2021 season#Forge FC #TheKickoff @FindlayLaw pic.twitter.com/k0dMmOQNvC— Forge FC (@ForgeFCHamilton) June 27, 2021
Valour with the early 1-0 lead thanks to a penalty. Interested to watch Sean Rea, a creative, young Canadian on loan from CF Montreal. He's got some spice when he's on the ball. Kevin Aleman has looked good for Valour, too. I agree that Forge have to be the favourite in the CPL this year, and can build off their experience in Concacaf. It's crazy to me that a Canadian soccer league, which everyone said could never happen, is playing their third season (and second season during a pandemic with no fans, so far). How's that for commitment from ownership.
Please remember that you are not supposed to announce results on Big Soccer. If you want to talk about a game and it's results, you need to start a thread that says, "HFX vs Forge [R]" for example. The [R] means that results are being discussed in case someone doesn't want to know the outcome of a game yet. That is a pretty standard Big Soccer policy.
