To find the area of the Canadian football field, we need to add 3,350 square yards to the area of the American football field.

American football field area = 6.4 x 10^3 square yards
Canadian football field area = 6.4 x 10^3 + 3,350 square yards
Canadian football field area = 6.4 x 10^3 + 3.35 x 10^3
Canadian football field area = 9.75 x 10^3 square yards

Therefore, the area of the Canadian football field is 9.75 x 10^3 square yards or 9.75 x 10^3 = 9.75 x 1,000 = 9,750 square yards.
