Nope. I just assumed now that there are 4 teams in the East and 5 teams in the West, they will go back to the old playoff form..but I guess I was wrong. Transplant just pulled off something from the Official CFL website and it says Crossover is still in effect.
I don't think they will try to get rid of the 2 division format because the CFL owners will not go for it especially the teams from the East. In my opinion They can still keep the 2 Division format but they should have the #1 & #2 to get a bye, then #3 vs #6 and #4 vs #5 play in quarterfinals. #1 will play the lowest ranking team (could be #6 if #6 upset #3 or #4 or #5). Then #2 will play #3 if #3 wins otherwise they'll play the winner of #4 or #5.
Not sure if that would happen though.
