June 9, 2014: Toronto Argonauts vs. Winnipeg Blue Bombers

In other words, are we certain this game will happen?

I'm not 100% sure but until I hear otherwise, I'm going to assume it's a go.

I read it before, but it states the same in this article, ..... the soonest that a strike vote can go in Alberta is the 7th of June.... then there is a 72 hr wait period , so that they strike on the 10th.

So the Argos are in Winnipeg on the Mon night .... I hope they get the players home before they strike!

Seems like a huge advantage if the Argos and Winnipeg were the only teams to get the 1st pre-season game in.

For that reason, among others, I suspect a strike will happen after the first week of preseason is over.

i think the PA will walk right before the BC/EDM game on Friday June 13th.

Friday the 13th would certainly be fitting for a labour disruption.
