I'm a bit concerned that unless they sublicense to Sportsnet, DAZN or someone established in the Canadian marketplace, it's going to be a tough sell for anyone to pay for another streaming service just for CanPL. Plus, this league has to be on mainstream TV, at least sometimes, to get the necessary traction.

The writeup seems very vague to me but it seems to be implying some kind of even smaller more niche boutique cable channel paired with a streaming service? Specifically geared only towards non-MLS Canadian soccer coverage?
I hope I'm interpreting that wrong, I was bracing myself for broadcast rights to be buried deep on Sportsnet World or something like that but it possibly sounds like an even more atrocious setup.
