Canada Soccer unveiled a new format for the Canadian Championship final in 2020: a single-match, winner-take-all final between one finalist from the Canadian Premier League and another from MLS. The winner of Canada’s "Battle of the North" will lift the Voyageurs Cup and qualify for the next edition of the Concacaf Champions League.
The winner of the CPL's Island Games Final represents the Canadian Premier League. The MLS finalist was determined by a series of nine MLS regular season matches between the three Canadian MLS teams. The team earning the most points against the other two Canadian MLS clubs advanced to the final: Toronto FC finished with 12 points, finishing three points ahead of rivals Montreal.
