​“I am honoured to receive the award,” said Cann. “It is a surprise to me because a lot of players had a very good year. It was great to be back playing at home this year with lots of support from my family and friends. The fans have been incredible and nothing compares to them in MLS.”

​Cann made 26 MLS appearances for Toronto FC, every time as one of Toronto FC’s starting XI. The centre back also helped Toronto FC win its second-straight Nutrilite Canadian Championship to again qualify for CONCACAF Champions League.
