History
Canadian S.C. was founded in late 2010 by Fernando Aldao from the need of the community of Uruguayans living in Canada to have a team representing them back home. Their supporters group is known as La Banda del Norte (the Band of the North) or LBDN and their main rival is Club Atlético Torque.
The club made its official debut in the Uruguayan Segunda División Amateur on 2 October 2011 against Basañez, on a 2–1 home win. Los canadienses won the Clasura title in their second season, earning them a promotion to the Uruguayan Segunda División.[1]
