The 2021 season was the 145th season of competitive soccer in Canada.^[1] Due to the COVID-19 pandemic in Canada, competitions were greatly altered, either starting late, or being curtailed. Due to border restrictions, many Canadian clubs that participate in soccer leagues with American soccer clubs did not participate, or were forced to play some of their regular season matches in the United States.
