SkyDome for November?

You can still play at BMO Field in November.

November might make sense to play in Vancouver. Its only a 2 match window and the first game isn't until Friday. So the players should have plenty of time to get there and get a few training sessions in with the team.

The September/October games make the most sense in Toronto or Montreal

Argos are at home during that window.

Completely biased I would love for them to play more games at BC place, but the lions are also home during that window.

Montreal does make the most sense for the November games, BC place for the US game, and BMO for the rest perhaps.

Ah crap I forgot.

I would do Toronto for September + October. Montreal for both November games. Vancouver for January.

I have to assume they're waiting for the National Interest Exemption. Since those have been granted to MLS teams hopefully this is announced shortly. 

The match would still be capped at 15K at BMO for now, but additional tickets could always be released if / when restrictions change

LOL, I should have said "national tea attendance record".

is Hamilton an option at all if BMO's not available and the CSA doesn't want to make Europe based players travel across the country?? I get Saputo is probably preferred because its grass, but I do like the stadium in Hamilton

Tim Hortons Field just had new field turf installed this year as well.

Hamilton hosts the Grey Cup in December so may have additional seating installed already in November that could boost attendance
