CTV, Canada’s most-watched station, has announced it will show seven MLS fixtures featuring Canadian teams this season. Toronto FC will be involved in three of those matches, with games against Vancouver, Minnesota and the cup rematch versus Seattle selected.
MLS and Bell Media signed a multi-year extension for the league’s sole broadcasting rights in English in Canada. The deal, finalized in January, gives TSN (which Bell owns in addition to CTV) the English-language rights to all MLS matches until 2021. Quebecor’s TVA Sports won the French-language rights for the same period over RDS, which had previously broadcasted games in Quebec.
