QuoteTORONTO (September 23, 2024) – The Canadian Football League's (CFL) nine member clubs will proudly wear Indigenous-designed logos to commemorate the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation during its Week 17 slate of games. The Calgary Stampeders, who will be on a bye week, featured their commemorative logo in Week 15 when playing host to Montreal.

The logos were created by local Indigenous artists to honour the game's close ties with Indigenous communities across the country, and to underscore the league's commitment to recognizing the past, while focusing on a path forward centred on awareness, education and action. The logos will be featured on players' helmets, in-stadium programming, and on the broadcasts on CTV, TSN, RDS, CFL+ and CBS Sports Network. A portion of proceeds from all associated merchandise sold will be donated to support local Indigenous groups, organizations or programming.

I like the Sask one

Got to keep the reconciliation going!

All very good...

Specially the Elks. Very nice.

Living in B.C. You see quite a bit of indigenous art...that one is a good example.

Some of the First Nations carved masks I've seen here.....👀

I think it's the worst one. Tiger Cats and Lions look the best

Elks and Lions are the best, IMO

The Elks one should become their normal logo. Very slick. Far superior to their current nonsense.

The Tiger Cats one looks like they didn't change barely anything from the original!?
