Intentional grounding is called resulting in a safety, Team A then proceeds to kick onside kick. Now the question. Is this a declinable penalty in which Team B takes over at the original LOS and kneels down to end the game without the added suspense of a onside?

CANADIAN RULING:
Of course B can decline the penalty and take the result of the play - which is an incomplete pass, and therefore a turnover on downs: Team B 1D/G @ A-5
