Tremblay seems to have solid credentials, playing for Teams Quebec and Team Canada. Olivier Roy is a solid incumbent at QB though, isn't he?

Olivier is in his third year I believe.
I would have to check, maybe Stingers needed a back up. Or maybe they want to have both fight for the starting position.

Interesting that Roy is also from the outskirts of Quebec city. Closer to Laval than Concordia.

It looks as though Laurier will be getting some major upgrades to their stadium. Maybe they could host a Vanier after it's completed.

This looks worth watching. Anyone with FibeTV seen this? I'd love to see more USports football content like this available.

You would think the embarrassment of the Jamie Bone case would change the CFL but NO ....

I remember Robinson had the best arm against two NCAA stars in Clements and Holloway but never saw the field .

the CFL wonders what they have trouble marketing ...

to Canadians or not having pride in the league .

Hmm I wonder why ...

Apparently the CFL Passing Showcase was happening in AUS. Who knew? They should probably stream these in some capacity.
