The net effect of the #CFL salary cap going up less than 1% and the minimum salaries going up 20% is that veteran players will have to take pay cuts next off season. — Farhan Lalji (@FarhanLaljiTSN) May 15, 2019

More CBA details:

1. Players will receive revenue sharing of 20% of the TSN deal, 2.0 & more.

There will also be some changes to the ratio. While TSN 1260's Jason Gregor reported earlier Wednesday the basics are not expected to change, Lalji reported Canadian quarterbacks will now be part of the ratio and teams must start at least three American starters that have played three years with their existing teams or four years in the CFL.

4. Among the American starters, 3 of them must have played 3 yrs with their existing teams or 4 yrs in #CFL. This in an effort to protect veteran players & build continuity.



The 3 yrs of medical coverage & revenue sharing are meaningful gains for players. @CFLonTSN — Farhan Lalji (@FarhanLaljiTSN) May 15, 2019

Lalji said this rule is an effort to protect veteran players and build continuity.
