Christine Sinclair

Canadian athletes had some major accomplishments on the big stage this year.

Christine Sinclair, the Canadian women’s national team captain and Diana Matheson,, have announced plans to launch a Canada-wide women’s soccer league in 2025.

Despite lack of funding, development programs, and promotion women get compared to their male counterparts, it was Canada’s women who dominated the headlines.

It was one of the most unusual years ever for sports, but Canada still had tons to be proud of.

The face of Canadian soccer is getting the country's highest honour.
