Teams place computers in Canadian building (4,5)

I believe the answer is:

side split

'canadian building' is the definition.
(primarily Canadian term for a split-level home)

'teams place computers' is the wordplay.
'teams' becomes 'sides' (eg football sides).
'place' becomes 'pl' (I've seen this in other clues).
'computers' becomes 'IT' (information technology).
'sides'+'pl'+'it'='SIDE SPLIT'

'in' is the link.

I've seen this clue in The Times.
