Getting CFL off the CBC was perhaps the most important step in the CFL's recent success.
In a perfect world Sportsnet would also get a piece of the CFL pie. Sportsnet spends very little time with CFL highlights and discussion and if they had a financial interest in it i would imagine they would do a much better job promoting it.
