Honestly, the best case scenario for broadcast for CPL is an NLL or CEBL scenario, where there is a game of the week on linear TV, and the rest is on a streaming service.
Worse case is something more like what Canada West or the WMBL has, which is a standalone streaming service.
Production for sure is a huge question mark. The NLL at least could rely on 'Jumbotron' arena feeds as a base level of production, but that doesn't exist for CPL venues.
And it would be a wonderful surprise if there is any sort of broadcast rights fees above a token amount for CPL rights.
