What is called in Canada is not really relevant to whether this call is good in Canada or in the NFL.
It's simply an awful call brought about by poor positioning and ball hawking.

Admittedly, I haven't had a chance to read all posts since I was in the Dominican while reading them, and my net time was limited.
Changed must be a term meaning "significantly changed". I hardly doubt that the angle between pre- and post- contact is 0 degrees.
If that is the rule, then so be it. It's a bad rule.
