Good news, viewers in the US can now stream all the games that aren’t on CBSSN and Europeans can stream all games on CFL+
And all pre-season games

I hope there will be an option to watch on demand or to review the games later on.

i am going to see if i can configure game live stream to here for game day topics, and maybe even chat window in forum.

It says no, probably because it’s free. You will only be able to watch on demand if the game is on CBSSN or on TSN

This is really for the fans in the US and overseas.
It’s only good to Canadians that want to see all the pre-season games

“Games will not be available to stream for our Canadian audience through CFL+ as all matchups will be broadcast in Canada by TSN, as well as a portion by RDS.”

I would pay for on demand games und replays. That would nice, if there is a possibilty for replays.

If you do have a TSN+ subscription or TSN through your cable provider, you can watch games on demand after the fact on TSN.ca. Hopefully it’s something they will add to CFL+ at a later date. Either way this is a great start.

I just read the release it doesn’t say where I can sign up for cfl plus,for what it’s worth I am in the USA.

I’m in Ohio and I like Canadian football better than American football. Sad to see the CFL marching boldly back to the days before VCRs for most games, and putting the others on an obscure channel that isn’t on a lot of people’s radar.

I got a feeling this is a starter for them to see how much u.s. interest there is.

There will be even less now. I proselytize to my friends, try to explain what they’re missing. Now explaining how they can watch is a 20-minute conversation. I tried to find a ranking for CBSSN among U.S. sports cable networks and couldn’t find a list that went down that far.

I think this is one of the smartest things the league has done in years, maybe ever.
