I ordered a $1000 worth of $50 gift certificates to a local Canadian owned pizza place from my Air Miles.

Strangely enough our CFL footballs are made in the USA by Wilson. I'm flying back home with four of them after the Grey Cup game yesterday.

While the sizes of American and Canadian footballs are slightly different, the same ball can fall within the requirements of each.

National Football League football is specified as; short circumference: 20 3/4 to 21 3/4 inches (527 to 540 mm), long circumference: 27 3/4 to 28 1/8 inches (705 to 714 mm).

Canadian Football League football is specified as; short circumference: 20 7/8 to 21 1/8 inches (530 to 537 mm), long circumference: 27 3/4 to 28 1/4 inches (705 to 718 mm).

Some professional quarterbacks do notice the difference in size. [2]

Another difference between NFL and CFL balls is that Canadian balls have two 1 inch (25 mm) complete white stripes around the football 3 inches (76 mm) from the largest diameter of the ball and NFL balls have no stripes at all.
