The
2008 CFL season was the 55th season of modern Canadian professional football. Officially, it was the 51st season for the league. It was also the first CFL season in which all of the league's regular season and post-season games, including the
Grey Cup game, were aired on
TSN. This meant the CFL was no longer aired on broadcast television in Canada. As of 2008, TSN was available in approximately 8.8 million of Canada's 13 million
households.
Montreal hosted the
96th Grey Cup at
Olympic Stadium on November 23, when the championship was won by the
Calgary Stampeders.
