Canada's worst kept soccer secret will be made public very soon. Canadian Soccer News has learned that Monday the NASL will announce the addition of another Canadian team to its ranks.
NASL commissioner David Downs will be in the Canadian capital to meet with owner of the Ottawa Fury John Pugh and his investors to introduce Ottawa as the newest NASL franchise at a press conference.

It is unclear at this point what will become of the Ottawa Fury PDL team but CSN sources confirmed that Ottawa will join the league in 2013 and will play out of Landsdowne Park.
For those that don't know the Fury, they've been a stalwart for developing young talent over the last few years and their connection to the community is exactly what makes them so valuable at the D2 level.
Hamilton, with the backing of the CFL's Hamilton TigerCats owner Bob Young, and was also believed to be joining the league in 2013, is no longer a certainty. League sources tell CSN a falling out has occured between Young and the league and his plans to bring a D2 franchise to Steeltown have stalled.
CSN will have more details as they become available and will have either David Downs or John Pugh on the Monday edition of It's Called Football
