Divisions could be fine as long as there is significant inter conference play. I also suspect this needs to wait until there are 12 teams.
West: Pacific, VFC, Kelowna (or Sask), Cavs, Edmonton, Valour
East: Forge, York, Ottawa, Halifax, Quebec, Montreal (or GTA/Kitchener)
Figure everyone plays each other twice (home and away) in their conference (5x4) and everyone in the other conference once (home and away) (5x2), you get a 30 game season (versus 28 now).
Could work, and be enough variety that it isn’t stale. Doing it with 8 could be a death by boredom for the league. 10 might not be enough either.
