CS Mont-Royal Outremont are the defending champions and will compete in the 2022 Canadian Championship.[1]

Changes from 2021

The 2022 season will have its greatest number of participating teams with 12 teams. CS Saint-Laurent and the CF Montréal Reserves join as expansion franchises.[2][3] CS Lanaudière-Nord (who previously competed in the PLSQ until 2015 as FC L'Assomption-Lanaudière prior to their merger with ARS Laser) returns to the league, replacing the district team FC Lanaudière.[4] CS Monteuil became AS Laval following a merger with another non-PLSQ club.[5] Ottawa South United will return to the league full-time after being forced to withdraw midway through the 2021 season due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Each team will play each other home and away for a 22 match season. The top four teams will qualify for the Coupe PLSQ.[6]

Teams

Twelve teams will participate in the 2022 season. The league champion will earn a place in the 2023 Canadian Championship.
