Collaros does address a need in Winnipeg. The Bombers are 2-4 with backup Chris Streveler after incumbent Matt Nichols suffered a season-ending shoulder injury.Winnipeg has clinched a playoff spot but will chase its first win in four games when it hosts the Montreal Alouettes on Saturday.It’s not surprising the Argos were involved in a deadline deal. Toronto has the CFL’s worst record and was eliminated from playoff contention with its lopsided 55-8 road loss Saturday night to the B.C. Lions.

The deal with Winnipeg was also Toronto’s first since its front-office shuffle. On Tuesday, the Argos fired GM Jim Popp —who reportedly had a one-year extension in place for Collaros — and replaced him with former player/head coach Mike Clemons. “You don’t make a trade just to make a trade,” he said. “There’s no reason to make any panic-button moves.Bethel-Thompson, for one, wasn’t spending any time worrying about his future coming down to the deadline.

Edmonton anti-abortion group sues city over refusal to light bridge in pink, blue and whiteAlberta March for Life Association says the city approved, then cancelled, its request to light up High Level Bridge in colours associated with pro-life activism Anti abortion? Is there a pro abortion group? When their friends say their expecting they suggest abortion because that's what they favor. Quit being idiots. Pro life and pro choice. People of faith don't deserve that crap. I am tired of special interest groups abusing our courts. Our legal system is seriously backlogged with far more important cases. Grow up! If you worried as much about abortion as you did about something so 🤬 childish you may have some pull in your argument. First problem is that No Public Funded Infrastructure should be used to promote Political Issues. Period.
