McIlroy, 35, won in 2019 at Hamilton Golf and Country Club and bridged canceled tournaments in 2020 and 2021 due to the pandemic with another title in 2022 at St George's Golf and Country Club.
The Northern Irishman finished in the top 10 in each of the past two years.
"Rory is among the top golfers in the world and Canadian golf fans have been extremely supportive of him during tournament week," tournament director Ryan Paul said.
