\u201cWe are thrilled to align with DAZN, the global leader in sports media and innovation,\u201d says CFL Commissioner\u00a0Stewart Johnston. \u201cFrom our first conversations, they have been steadfast in their pursuit of the CFL.

\u201cHaving grown up as an Albertan with Saskatchewan roots, I\u2019ve witnessed firsthand the proud history and passionate fan base the Canadian Football League has across the country,\u201d says Deidra Dionne, Head of DAZN Canada.\u00a0\u201cThe CFL has built on that legacy through recent innovation and modernization and has solidified its place among Canada\u2019s elite properties.
