The startup of CPL didn’t need that CSA relationship, those owners of the CPL started that up, as well as OneSoccer, on their own. CPL would exist regardless of a CSA relationship.
And, this is the first public acknowledgement as to the extent and ramifications and restrictions to the CSA itself, of the deal signed 4 years ago.
Basically the CSA has been given an allowance now to spend, and all CSA revenues, including WC related revenue come to the CSB. So, the CSA doesn’t have any more to give in this case or any future cases, the CSB has to be asked to and decide to give it. Again, this is news to the players and general public, it sounds like.

I think your questions are at the heart of the issue that we are trying to find out. I just wanted to provide some context as to who CSB were. For me, they are simply the people who invested in the sport in this country and should not be vilified.
Oddly enough, the deal was celebrated by Canada Soccer 4 years ago, so I think the about face on how that deal now suddenly handcuffs them is laughable.
