this sums up Canada Soccer grossly incompetent, neglectful of soccer talent (both male and female) for decades, dancing on the edge of financial ruin in the richest sport in the world... but let's focus on changing the Assoc logo, right Kevin Blue, Ph.D.

Would any other Federation's President admit their role in the creation of a women's league was/is "small"? It's honest, but I fell its inadvertently pretty damming for a Federation that has done more harm to female players over decades than it's done good...

The dream many players in Canada have, or once had: navigate the hellscape that is Canada Soccer 😈 and get to play for a top club in Europe 🥰

These Clubs Need More Than Templates And Tools, You've Been Providing These For Years Now. This Is Not The Problem At These Clubs. Lack Of Management, Accountability And Far Too Many Non Soccer People Involved For Their Own Benefit

1/7 So an "update" that includes what the WC ticketing allocation looks like. What they’re calling a "draw" is really just tiered "pay to win" access disguised as fairness. Some verbal gymnastics going on here. #CanMNT #WorldCup2026

Not a chance unfortunately. Sports in Canada is focused on giving the haves more and keeping the have-nots out. Nepotism in hiring, player selection and opportunity creation. Weak and frail as a result. Found out on the national stage.

"Easy to talk when its other people's money. What if it was yours?" Sure. Annihilate pay-to-play in 🇨🇦 and instead open up 🇨🇦⚽️ to Club ⚽️ like they have in 🇪🇺 & Central/South America. Instead of parent-funded, 🇨🇦 goes to transfer-market funded. That's how you get a Györkeres

As much as I dont like to use isolated examples to make a point, but you see this and then you look at Canada player development and Canada might as well be a developing kids for a totally different sport (which they do, cause most quit soccer by 16)
