I wonder, do teams pay for flights and accommodation?

Schedule is out. Looks like season has been moved up a week
Or Bombers bye week is last week.

Teams pay the costs in these situations but players pay their own way and a tryout fee for the tryout camps CFL teams hold in the spring in various cities in the States. Different thing, I know.

Isn't there a rule that says if you're suspended in the NFL you can't play in the CFL? Or did they change that...

I found the following from 2016:
Does this mean that the CFL will enforce NFL or NCAA suspensions, preventing players like LaVon Brazill from joining the league? How will other WADA sports weigh into that; if someone tests positive in rugby or bobsled, should they be punished by the CFL for that, and will they be? Will the CFL enforce already-served suspensions from other leagues, or escalate those players to a higher level of its program? And what about suspensions from other leagues for substances that the CFL does not test for, such as marijuana? The league's new policy for prospects will ignore positive tests for substances it does not test for, so hopefully this one will too, but until the league spells it out, we don't know.
Update: The CFL has since answered the questions initially raised here. This is actually based on the February prospect policy, which also contains provisions for non-draft-eligible players. Any player who tests positive for a substance the CFL tests for (so not marijuana or other recreational drugs) or incurs a doping-program violation (by avoiding a test or violating a test rule) will be banned from the CFL for a year, but they can enter the CFL with a clean sheet after that. Fortunately, this won't affect players like Brazill who tested positive for marijuana; the CFL absolutely should not follow the NFL's prohibitions there, and it doesn't look like it's going to for the moment. However, as with the prospect policy, this may end some careers; it's providing one more place where a suspended player can't play.

The Calgary Stampeders have released international receiver Marken Michel and international defensive lineman James Vaughters in order to allow them to pursue opportunities with National Football League clubs. Both players were scheduled to become free agents next month.

Marken looking to join his brother Sony in the NFL - I wish him the best of luck, but if things don't work out, I would love to have him back in Calgary.

Hearing that Eric Tillman is in discussions to become the top football operations executive with the Atlantic Schooners. #CFL
Talks between Eric Tillman and Atlantic Schooners have been substantial and at this point it would be surprising if he is not hired as their top football executive.#CFL #Atlanticschooners

I'm sure he's going to grab that franchise by the belt loops and grind out some wins.

Awesome . . . I love Eric Tillman jokes. Back in the day when he was Edmonton's GM, my buddies and I used to heckle Eskimos fans at the Labour Day rematch game after the Stamps pulled out a lead: "Don't worry Edmonton, you're GM loves sneaking up from behind!"

Huf and his scouts throughout North America do a fine job finding impact guys, so I'm not too worried. Is there going to be a bidding war for Jonathan Jennings and should the Stamps be involved?
