On Saturday, June 13, the Edmonton Eskimos kicked off the 2015 football season in Fort McMurray as part of the Northern Kickoff Festival. Global News was happy to be part of the preseason home game for the Edmonton Eskimos. It was the most northern game in the history of the CFL. As part of the Northern Kickoff Global News had a booth on site in Fort McMurray. Activities in the booth included a green screen activation where people were invited to take a digital photo with Gord Steinke, our Early News and News Hour anchor.
