The CFL is pushing back the start to its 2021 season and reducing the number of games played due to the COVID-19 pandemic.​ yqr sk CFL

The league announced Wednesday it plans to kick off the '21 campaign Aug. 5, nearly two months later than originally planned.

Four of the CFL's nine franchises -- Toronto Argonauts, Hamilton Tiger-Cats, Ottawa Redblacks and Montreal Alouettes -- operate in the two provinces. The hope is the decision to delay the start of the '21 season will allow for more Canadians to receive their COVID-19 vaccinations and thus increase chances of fans being in the stands at some point once football resumes.
