The CFL Players’ Association says Occupational Health and Safety in Alberta is investigating the CFL’s decision to play the Edmonton Elks-Calgary Stampeders game Monday despite smoky conditions in Calgary.
The CFL and CFLPA have a policy that’s been in place since 2019 that states on-field activities are to either be cancelled or ceased when the air-quality rating exceeds seven. In its submission to the CFL after the opening kickoff, the CFLPA stated air-quality levels in Calgary were hazardous and posed a threat to the health and safety of players on the field. It asked the league to delay the game until such time as those levels dropped to seven or below.The union also added if the game went ahead, it would bring the matter to the attention of Alberta’s Occupational Health and Safety. The CFLPA says a complaint was filed and the OHS is now investigating the matter.
Forest fire smoke drifted into Calgary overnight Saturday. Environment Canada’s air quality index at kickoff Monday read nine out of 10, or “high risk.”
