Would it not be possible for the cfl to start a cfl lottery designed to help pay players pensions or help with promotions etc… perhaps put money towards stadium upgrades ? Might be an angle to look at. Or is that not possible?
Would not fly and would make the League look bad.
CFL clubs are not non-profit organizations (at least the privately owned teams) especially when you now have owners like MLSE onboard.
So they can’t run a lottery to essentially prop up their own business which is what essentially stadium upgrades and marketing promotions are.
They can’t even operate their own 50/50 draws though it’s generally their charitable arm (i.e. Argos done by MLSE Foundation).
