# 1919 in Canadian football
## Canadian Football News in 1919

Regular season play resumed following World War I.
W. A. Hewitt served as president of the Canada Rugby Union for the 1919 season.
There was no Grey Cup game. McGill University declined further play due to the lateness of the season and the approaching examinations. Montréal Winged Wheelers declined due to the arrival of cold weather and a frozen ground. Many players were businessmen, returning from World War I and were more interested in resuming their business affairs than playing football.
