I mean, why even have a salary cap if the fines are this meaningless?

Four teams have been fined by the CFL for exceeding the salary cap in 2022, including the two clubs that squared off in the Grey Cup.

The Winnipeg Blue Bombers, Toronto Argonauts, Ottawa Redblacks, and Montreal Alouettes were found to have exceeded the cap following an audit from the league. Each team was fined in accordance with the amount by which they exceeded the cap.

Winnipeg was assessed the largest fine at $64,499 followed by Toronto at $49,735. Ottawa was fined $11,994, while Montreal was fined a paltry $794.
