JR - is this true in Canada even if the foul is against the defense? If so, then they could stop the clock without using up a timeout by jumping offsides as soon as the ball is RFP. Sure, they lose 5 yards, but I can see numerous instances where a team would GLADLY give up 5 yards to stop the clock.

Don't forget that we have the 1 yard neutral zone. If the D is in that NZ, the play goes on. They would have to break the plane of the LS to stop the clock. The R could then option to A to decline the penalty to run the clock. If B did the same thing again, you could eventually penalize 10 yards for Objectionable Conduct, down repeated.
