Did you know the first thanksgiving celebrated by Europeans in North America happened in Canada?
Or that the Indigenous celebrated autumn harvests long before Europeans arrived?
Why do we celebrate Thanksgiving a month earlier than the United States?
This is the story.

Because they want to pull in NFL fans? (Won't work because of this). There is no logic to that I can see other than looking to reduce field goal attempts, drop scoring and argue for a fourth down to 'pull in NFL fans' which 100% won't work.

Unofficially, Trey Vaval has set a new Blue Bombers team record for Missed FG Return Yards in season - now at 329 yards

The previous record was 277 yards set by Albert Johnson in 2000.

We might be able to write Vaval's name in stone.
