Sarah Mills: Prime minister should be fixing economic issues rather than offering relief
Prime Minister Mark Carney has unveiled billions in strategic funding to get Canada's economy moving in new directions. ...
The Saskatchewan Roughriders have defeated every other CFL team on their way to this ten-win season in 2017.
A lack of confidence shouldn’t hinder the Riders chances of getting a win on Sunday,
however, there are two noticeable obstacles the team will have to overcome in the eastern semi-final in Ottawa:
- The Redblacks had a bye in week 20 of the CFL season. We are at that point where every team could use a weekend off. Even those players who are hurt, even though they may not be officially injured, benefit from rest at this time of year.
- The Redblacks are at home. Don’t be fooled by Ottawa’s 3-5 and 1 record at TD Place Stadium. The Redblacks are hosting the Grey Cup, they have a fan base that can give their team an edge over any opponent on any given game day.
These are two aspects of this east semi-final that the Riders will have to keep top of mind in the lead up to Sunday’s playoff game.
