Every year it is more apparent the only reason to designate Global players is to reduce the number of Canadians in the league, who can command higher salaries based on their status.
Agreed AV; the Global thing is a way for the mostly Americans running the CFL to get more of their favored American trained guys on rosters. Too bad the "radical" CFL doesn't care much for Canadian talent in the pro league in this country - it should be increased on CFL rosters and stop with the biased, ignorant Bull$hite of ignoring or dismissing Canadian talent at certain positions.

They could have just said we're going to start scouting "Global" players by looking far & wide and promoting football and maybe the CFL a bit - with scouting going on in other countries where they play gridiron football. But almost all the "Globals" who are looked at are just American college trained guys who happen to come from other countries.

Ambrosia is a clown of a Commish - this and other garbage has happened under his watch - he needs to get lost IMO.
