So Sask needs a win against Montreal and the Als are resting Alexander, Philpot, and Snead. I can only hope BC decides to pull their starters tonight against Calgary as the Lions are locked into second regardless of who wins. It's been a horrible schedule all season long and takes away from...

Meanwhile private industry spent zero
