CFC Prospect Game (TSN)
Pre-Confederation 1861-1866

That means that football predates Canadian Confederation by six years, and by some accounts the roots of the game can be traced back even farther to the 1850s. At the time the students were playing something resembling modern day rugby, but little did they know their cloud of dust would soon become woven into the fabricate of a country yet to be born.
