Football: All-Canadian selections!

Some notes on the all-Canadian selections, which are below the jump (second-team selections in parentheses):

• Laval had the most first-team selections (5), followed by Queen's (4), Calgary (3), Montréal (2) and St. Francis Xavier (2).
  
  
• Two national award finalists, Saskatchewan fifth-year linebacker Taylor Wallace (who was up for the Presidents') and Saint Mary's rush end DeVon Hicks (a Metras nominee), were left off.
  
  
• The western Huskies, who went 8-2 overall, had just one second-team pick, cornerback Grant Shaw. Similarly, Saint Mary's (8-2 overall) had no first-team picks.
  
  
• It is nice to see the country's two most versatile players, Saskatchewan cornerback-kicker Shaw and Queen's cornerback-kick returner Jimmy Allin, each earn recognition. It would be even better if CIS had an award to recognize players who contribute so extensively in two of the game's three phases.
  
  
• Bishop's is the only playoff team which did not have a player honoured.
