Ottawa made sure Energy East got kiboshed due to opposition in Quebec and played a part in Transmountain's delays.

Anybody else see the piece about the Raiders possibly doing an exhibition game at Mosaic? Isn't it bad enough those guys have to live in Oakland?

Around the League: 2019 Off Season
Well, others have pretty much stated it. Essentially he wants the league to begin to have more of an international focus in order to increase viewership both around the world and in Canada. So they have begun to reach out to these football federations in order to build partnerships (not like the NFL going in and dictating but an actual partnership). The thought is that the best of their players will eventually play in the CFL and that Canadians who can't make the CFL will end up in those leagues.This will led to other venue streams from these nations which will increase the league's revenue. As well, he mentioned the differences in markets across the league. His belief is that places like Toronto with some many first and second generation Canadians are more attracted to leagues they view as international in nature.

I was at the event on Friday and as other posters have said, it makes sense when you hear him.

They will tout how Cody Fajardo or David Watford is a combo of Ron Lancaster/Kent Austin and Doug Flutie.

At the risk of being offensive, the above statement shows that you are either extremely shallow or extremely ignorant. A sitting Prime Minister, his Minister of Finance, the PMO and the top civil servant in the country spent four months putting pressure on the Justice Minister to essentially fix a case for a company that has donated millions to the PM's political party, to gain a political advantage is a huge event.

I'm not sure I want to start a #FireKavis or a #KavisforRidersGM movement.

How do these guys possibly stay on? This is stuff makes the sponsorship scandal look good.

I've read that Regina only has something like 3900 hotel rooms and that such an event generally requires roughly double that. Its a joke that people have to stay in Estevan, Moosejaw or Yorkton. Its like hosting it in Winnipeg and people booking hotels in Portage La Prairie, Selkirk and Stienbach.

Nice to add another national who can rotate in on the DL.

Not even the best National S in my mind. I'd rather have Adeleke. Ackie is better too.

I'd wait it out on Soli and then come up with a fair deal.

Good for Hamilton. Stand by my previous stance that Regina should not host as they lack the infrastructure.

If one is a Rider fan, would you not be terrified that you are one play away from having Cody Fajardo as your starting QB?

So who do we believe Willie Jefferson and reporters who said that Jefferson left $ on the table or a Rider fan posting on a message board?

Hughes is 35 and while he had 12 sacks in the first half of the season, he had 3 in the second half. I'd be legitimately worried that he's done. Huff may have pulled the ole Wally Special.

That's ok, they have Cody Fajardo. Man has 5 count them 5 career TD passes.

I'd like to see a Jesse Joseph myself. Ciante Evans would be a nice pickup as well. A vet OL like Gott, Deane or Sorenson or a younger one like JSJ.

How do the losses of Jefferson, Antiga and Eguavoen impact the Riders D? What happens if the D doesn't score as many TDs?
