The first of two Canada Day openers takes place in the Hammer today, as the rebuilding Blue Bombers make the trek to southern Ontario to challenge the Ticats, a team which through training camp and into the pre season appears to be a serious contender to challenge Montreal's domination of the east.
Today's games also herald the return of the regular season of Friday Night Football on TSN, a concept that has proven to be visionary for the sports network, which has made Friday's a must watch night for CFL fans, treating us tonight as they will on many occasions with a Friday night double header.
Below you can find information about the game, both previews and game reviews as well as other items of note from both CFL.ca and other sources.
Game Time 6:00 PM ET (5 CT, 3 PT) at Ivor Wynne Stadium (TSN)
