Ackie, 29, signed with the Argonauts last February but never played for the team due to the cancellation of the 2020 season.
The native of Cambridge, Ont., spent the 2019 season with the Alouettes, his second stint with the team after spending the first four seasons of his career with Montreal. Ackie has also played for the Ottawa Redblacks.
Ackie has amassed 154 tackles, two sacks and two interceptions over his six previous seasons in the CFL.
