The Winnipeg Blue bombers are losing another Canadian member of their offensive line: center Obby Khan will announce his retirement Wednesday.

Khan has played 8 seasons in the CFL, 2 with Ottawa, the last 6 with the Blue Bombers.

Health problems, specifically Crohns disease,  have plagued his career, but he has dressed for all 18 games each of the last 3 seasons, and started most of those games.

Khan joins Brendan Labatte and retired Doug Brown as starting Canadian linemen who will not be back with the Bombers in 2012.
