MONTREAL — Davis Alexander ran for a 10-yard touchdown with 1:46 remaining as the Montreal Alouettes rallied for a 26-25 win over the Toronto Argonauts on Thursday. Article content The Alouettes quarterback improved to 8-0 as a starter, matching Danny McManus's CFL record of eight straight victories to begin a career. Article content Article content Alexander initially showed rust with a costly interception in his return from missing two games with a hamstring injury, but bounced back for 303 passing yards, one passing touchdown and his game-winning score for Montreal (4-2), which had lost two in a row without him. However, he appeared to aggravate the hamstring injury on his touchdown run. Article content The Alouettes trailed 25-7 before they started a comeback late in the third quarter. Article content Cole Spieker and Sean Thomas-Erlington also scored touchdowns, while Jose Maltos kicked two field goals and Joseph Zema added a single before 19,354 at Molson Stadium after a rainy day in Montreal. Nick Arbuckle threw two touchdown passes and one interception, going for 242 yards in his sixth consecutive start for defending champion Toronto (1-5) while 2023 outstanding player Chad Kelly remained injured.

Article content Toronto took a 25-7 lead six minutes into the third quarter when Arbuckle found Ungerer alone with a 14-yard end-zone pass, capping a 76-yard drive. Article content Late in the quarter, the Alouettes responded with their first touchdown off a gutsy play on third down as Spieker hauled down Alexander's 10-yard pass for a score, cutting Toronto's advantage to 25-14. Article content Spieker then caught the ball and ran for a 38-yard gain in the fourth quarter before Thomas-Erlington rushed three yards into the end zone to make it 25-20. Montreal missed the two-point conversion. Article content Then came a number of momentum swings. Article content On Montreal's next possession, Alexander fooled the Argos defence with some play action and found Spieker for a 47-yard reception. Spieker, however, fumbled the ball just before crossing into the end zone. Article content Arbuckle then fumbled the ball at the Toronto 21 after a sack from Lwal Uguak, leading to a 10-yard TD rush from Alexander, who injured himself on the play. Article content The Alouettes took a 26-25 lead with 1:46 remaining after another missed two-point conversion, but Kabion Ento sealed the win with an interception.

Saskatchewan's Festival of Words kicks off for 29th year
The Saskatchewan Festival of Words kicked off on Thursday in Moose Jaw. (Damian Smith / CTV News) The 29th annual Saskatchewan Festival of Words kicked off in Moose Jaw on Thursday. The literary festival is an opportunity for authors to show their work, with workshops, reading sessions, and slam poetry. To kick off the next few days, 'The Hockey Skates' was read to children, a story of how former NHL player P.K. Subban waited for his skates to arrive in the mail. About 15 kids sat down, taking in the importance of reading at a young age. 'I feel like I see a lot of joy in my job, so I love that part about it,' said Aislinn Lawreniuk, the children's coordinator at Moose Jaw Public Library. 'Instilling the love of reading with young children, that's another definite bonus in this job for sure.' Lawreniuk also noted that 'The Hockey Skates' book was perfect for pre-school aged children, as the book sees a lot of repetition in its writing. The festival will end on Sunday, with a few events happening at the Cosmo Seniors Centre.
