    New ratings system (PPM) was put in place in September 2009 and 2010 was the first full year with the people meters, I think that helped boost the numbers for those years.

    I don't doubt that, but my point was that those games weren't on CTV and drew that many viewers. So to say that the reason for smaller numbers is that the game is not on CTV, doesn't make sense in my books.

    The Blue Jays numbers broke records this year and Sportsnet is available in less homes than TSN is. Although, I do believe that if the Grey Cup was on CTV the numbers would grow a bit, but not by much, if people really wanted to watch the Grey Cup they'd find a way.
