Whats with all this discrimination and court talk? I'm lost as to how that makes sense.
The rule/quota was created by the CSA to state that if you want to field a D3 team outside of Canada's D3 league, than it must meet the requirements we have established.
I. E.
For example, Martin Davis who is unofficially signed with TFCII is a jamaican born, youth international that has Canadian citizenship through his father. This tells me that although he is "Canadian" he will be classified as a import because hes representing another country. This does not mean he is eligible to play for this team, it just simply means he's part of the 50% that don't have to be Canadian.Each team will be required to ensure that 50 percent of its active USL-Pro roster is Canadian. Importantly, it defines Canadians not by their citizenship but rather by their national team eligibility. Canadians capped by other nations are free to play for the teams, but will be considered imports in relation to CSA sanctioning. To ensure that the cubs aren't just filling out their roster with Canadians for the sake of meeting the quota, the CSA is also requiring that six of the starting 11 players for each game be Canadian.
These rules are slightly different from when the CSA/MLS had the rule of 7 players must be Canadian.... I didn't hear discrimination and court talks then. What's the difference now?
