How is that going to work with the CFL's need for prime-time TV slots on Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays?
    I would say no effect. There were many CFL games last season on only 1 or 2 of the TSN channels. I could see each the WJC and CFL getting 2 of the 4 feeds (TSN 2 usually has alternate programming) if there is a conflict.

    Right, but will TSN ensure that the regional network(s) that play CFL games are the ones that serve the region(s) of the teams in those games? For instance, will Argo and Ticat games be on TSN4, the Ontario feed for TSN? Or will they be shunted off to one of the other regional feeds so that the biggest market gets the hockey game?

    They did not do that this past year. I remember complaining that season opener at Calgary was not on TSN4. In their arrogance, I think they just assume that everyone will have all of their channels.

    That's the point. I imagine it will happen that way again during the WJC.
