That's cool. I am Canadian.

I spoke with his family at the Montana vs. Liberty game last fall, and he has alot of family from British Columbia (BC) and the West, so thats always great to be selected by the "Home Town" team.

Coach Gill also played with the BC Lions back in the day.

I had a conversation with his mom at the Montana game also. If I remember correctly, it was his only college game that they got to watch in person. Great opportunity for his family to watch him in the CFL.

Interesting article on Hunter with a number of quotes from Dennis Wagner. Sounds like he is now about 320..

Nice find on the article. I sent the article to my dad. He played two seasons with the Toronto Argo's of the CFL a very long time ago in the early 60's.

Does anyone know if former Liberty Flame Football player Matt Lambros is still playing in the CFL? Matt was with the Hamilton Tiger Cats & then was able to sign with Calgary Stampeders (his hometown team) the last time I had followed him. I am now Stateside, so I don't follow as many CFL games as I used to.

Lions optimistic Hunter will set sights on CFL
B.C. has big plans for six-foot-seven, 305-pound offensive lineman if he doesn't crack NFL lineup

BY MIKE BEAMISH, VANCOUVER SUN NOVEMBER 26, 2013

Imagine me and you ... a duo in the National Football League.

Hunter Steward entertains the same fantasy dream as Austin Pasztor, his former teammate with the University of Virginia Cavaliers and now the starting right tackle for the Jacksonville Jaguars.

At six-foot-seven and 305 pounds, Steward is a virtual physical clone of Pasztor. Both are Canadians who moved to Virginia to play high school football, played high-level college ball in the Old Dominion and were drafted by Canadian Football League teams.

The B.C. Lions have signed 2013 top pick Hunter Steward to a contract.

The offensive lineman was picked sixth overall at the 2013 Canadian Football League draft and spent the last three years at Liberty University in Lynchburg, Va.

The Victoria resident was the starting left tackle for the Flames over the past two seasons after spending his first year as a reserve on the school's defensive line.

"Hunter is a big, athletic offensive lineman who has tremendous upside," Lions general manager Wally Buono said in a statement. "When you add the acquisition of Hunter to our offensive line which already includes Matt Norman and Kirby Fabien, it certainly gives us a bright future."

Interesting. He told me at pro day he was going to still pursue the NFL. Guess his agent convinced him otherwise.

Hunter Steward finally gets his chance on Lions offensive line
Injury-plagued Lions offensive lineman to put his best foot forward against Hamilton

BY STEVE EWEN, THE PROVINCE OCTOBER 23, 2015

It's been a rough season for the BC Lions who need to keep up the pressure against the Tiger Cats if they even have a hope of a win tonight at BC Place.

Hunter Steward’s unintentional studies of podiatry have ended. His push toward being a starting offensive lineman with the B.C. Lions resumes.

The Lions have activated Steward, 23, from the injured list for Friday’s matchup versus the Hamilton Tiger-Cats at B.C Place (7 p.m., TSN, TSN 1040).

He probably knows more about feet than some doctors who consider that their speciality.

The 2013 CFL draft first rounder from Victoria hasn’t played in a game since breaking a bone in his right foot in an Aug. 24, 2014, meeting versus the Saskatchewan Roughriders.

In case you were curious, Hunter is still getting paid to play football up north of the border.
