CFL Grey Cup week continues with the Edmonton Elks and Montreal Alouettes set to meet the press for media day.

The Elks and the Alouettes are set to clash in just a few days time on Sunday night.

Edmonton made its return to the big stage for the first time since winning it all in 2015.

Meanwhile, Montreal is look to redeem itself after losing in last year’s title game.

It’s the third time in four years the Alouettes have made the championship game, winning it all in 2023.

A longstanding Grey Cup tradition will also take place today: Tuffy Nuff, an off-white horse with brown speckles, will walk through a Calgary hotel.
