(2) In 1983, AUAA chose not to participate in a Bowl game as a protest against CIAU. WIFL champion
Calgary received a direct berth in the national final.

(3) In 1967, OQAA voted against any league participation in the Vanier Cup championship game. WIFL
champion Alberta received a direct berth in the national final.
