Peter Greene, Managing Partner of Affleck Greene McMurtry LLP, delivered the game ball at the Toronto Argonauts vs. Montreal Alouettes game at the Rogers Centre on Saturday, October 18. The game was part of the CFL Pink initiative, a league wide campaign to help tackle women’s cancers by partnering with a local cancer charity to raise funds and awareness. Saturday’s game was in support of Ovarian Cancer Canada (OCC) and Teal was the colour of the day. Proceeds from the 50/50 Draw were donated to OCC and fans were also encouraged to give a small donation in exchange for the game program.
