Canada Soccer drone spying scandal

In June and July 2024, staff from the Canadian Soccer Association were discovered to be using drone surveillance to spy or attempt to spy on the training sessions of opponents. The initial incident at the 2024 Copa América was not initially reported on or disclosed at the time. The second incident at the 2024 Paris Olympics drew global attention. After the Paris incident, formal investigations by the Canadian Soccer Association and FIFA began and the latter resulted in a six-point deduction for the women's national team at the 2024 Summer Olympics.
