L1O 2023 champs Simcoe County Rovers draw MLS Toronto FC and with the new ranking system for this year, TFC gets to host at BMO Field for this one game series in April or May.
After that the rounds are home and away until the final in September.
Looks tough but I suppose it keeps the smaller clubs from hosting in stadiums that don't meet the CSA standard. The other L1Canada teams are on the road against CPL teams as Whitecaps and CF Montreal got a preliminary round bye for being last year's finalists.

In League1 Ontario play, Simcoe County Rovers 5-1 win over North Mississauga SC tonight at Mattamy Sports Park means that Sigma FC win the fan sponsored Credit River Cup this season. Sigma had 7 points and North Miss were the only team that could catch them if they'd won tonight and against Pro Stars FC next month.
Four goals for Rovers Paul Karagianakos tonight including one at 35 seconds! He's a 2002! Any CPL team watching? Oh and Rovers head coach Jason Beckford said Doneil Henry was training with Rovers before he signed with HFX Wanderers a few weeks ago. Why not? He is a co-owner!
