However, one of the national spots will go to an American who has at least three years of experience with the same team or five years in the league. The move is designed to address roster turnover, which has been a complaint among fans. Adam Bighill could be the Bombers' 8th Canadian. I absolutely fail to see why this is a hill to die on.

If the Players want an 8th Canadian then get rid of the one year deals. Standard CFL contracts would be 2 years or longer. Give up something to gain aniher.

May 26, 20223 yr comment_566420 Why strike? Just keep playing off of the old CBA? The ship of fools that is the CFL & CFLPA...

I can't believe that there's still so many people in this league with a hatchet, just waiting to kill the golden goose.....C'mon guys (on both sides) give us some CFL football Edited May 26, 20223 yr by Stickem
May 26, 20223 yr Author comment_566424 If the players don't strike, the CFL will have to lock them out. They can't risk players striking the day before opening day or risk that threat.

May 26, 20223 yr comment_566429 Neither side could really afford to strike but here we go. Both sides acting like it has leverage. Let’s be honest they both need each other and this has been nothing short of a disaster so far.
May 26, 20223 yr comment_566431 So, I wanted to post this from DT because I'm pretty vocal about my support for all things "Canada", especially when it comes to the CFL. I know we're not all on the same page with this, but I thought it was a really good tweet thread from DT, and because not everyone is on Twitter, I wanted to share it here...
May 26, 20223 yr comment_566432 I'm going to stay off twitter for the rest of the day due to the south shooting stuff (it took over my afternoon/evening yesterday) so if anyone sees an update about the CBA please post it here!

Which is a real possibility. Pissing the fans off by shutting things down won't win them any support from the public. If the CFL does shut down then tertiary support staff will lose their jobs thru layoffs on teams & the league office. Training staff, coaches, scouts, sales & marketing people, admin & secretarial, etc. Yep, pick this hill to die on, Canuck players. Right after a pandemic. You make sure to fight like crazy to protect your jobs but to hell with the lives of everyone else. . No skin off your nose ifinnocent people have to pay bills or put food on their tables to feed their families. Selfish idiots. Interested to hear the leagues business pitch and revenue growth seen from having 1-3 extra American players on the field at a time. This whole thing is ridiculous. There’s basically nothing wrong with the ratio the way it has been aside from potentially discouraging teams from developing Canadian QB’s. Not sure why this is the fight the BOG wants to take all the way to risk a season.
May 26, 20223 yr Author comment_566437 I saw he got hurt but I wasn't certain what the injury was or whether or not it had been posted here. Really too bad for him and the RedBlacks.

May 26, 20223 yr comment_566444 Sucks for Ottawa and Boatang. As for the CBA, I'm feed up with both sides. Figure it out and let's get the season started.
