The attendance of 25318 at the Argos-TiCats game set a new attendance record for the TiCats. Elk's QB Tre Ford broke the record for single game rushing yards by a Canadian QB putting up 135yds from 11 carries beating the previous 1964 record of 134yds set by CFL legend Russ Jackson. The Elks-Stamps game has courted controversy as it was held in air quality conditions that measured 8 & 10 which are classed as unsafe & high risk & not suitable for rigorous outdoor activity. The readings are the result of ongoing wildfires. Following a Thursday meeting between the CFLPA & CFL it's been agreed to bring in another party in addition to current partner Environment and Climate Change Canada to provide air quality measurements in real time with games being halted if readings hit seven or higher during the course of a game. A 2019 agreement between the CFL & CFLPA stated that players should not practice or play outdoors in conditions with a reading of seven or higher but for whatever reason was ignored.

In U Sports Manitoba Bisons kicker Maya Turner has become the first female player to play & score in a regular season U Sports game. In an interesting note The Bisons previously had DB Reina Iizuka on their roster 2018-2020 who is the first ever female on a U sports roster although never played.

Hall Of Fame RB & Roughriders stalwart George Reed has died aged 83.

The Argos turned 150 the other day. Both the oldest pro football team in North America & also the oldest team still using it's original moniker in any sport across North America.

In response to missing out on the playoffs the Roughriders have announced they will be parting ways with head coach Craig Dickenson after five seasons in the job putting up a 34-34 record. GM Jeremy O'Day remains in place.

With their 16th win of the season the Argos tied the '89 Elks for the winningest season in the CFL history. The 16-2 record also surpasses the team's previous best seasons of 15-3 set in '96 & '97 which is a good omen as the Argos won the Grey Cup in those two seasons. As a further good omen the two losses came with backup QB Cameron Dukes playing one of which came when the team had already secured the division with a rotated squad. The team also set a new league record by securing a post-season spot with six games to spare.


The Redblacks have parted ways with OC Khari Jones.
