NIAGARA FALLS, Ont. – Running back Brady Oliveira of the Winnipeg Blue Bombers is the CFL’s outstanding Canadian.
Oliveira was honoured Thursday during the CFL’s awards banquet at Fallsview Casnio & Resort.
Voting was conducted by the Football Reporters of Canada and nine CFL head coaches.
The five-foot-10 220-pound Oliveira ran for a CFL-high 1,534 yards (5.9-yard average) with nine TDs in leading Winnipeg (14-4) to first place in the West Division.
The 26-year-old Winnipeg native added 38 catches for 482 yards and four TDs.
Montreal Alouettes safety Marc-Antoine Dequoy was the finalist.
The Bombers and Alouettes meet Sunday in the Grey Cup at Tim Hortons Field.
