Edmonton is drawing more than they did in their NASL days with literally half the expenses. They'll be fine.
York is the only concerning team at this point and even then it's early days. They're going head-to-head against TFC in a crowded sports market. The owners knew before signing onto the league that the first few seasons were going to be loss-heavy.
There's a CPL thread which would be better suited for this.
