Calvillo passed Ron Lancaster with his 334th career touchdown pass, a 48-yarder to Jamel Richardson with 11:03 left in the first half that got Montreal on the board. The Alouettes (4-0) erased an early 6-0 deficit by scoring 18 points in the second quarter.
Calvillo, who completed 30 of 39 passes for 404 yards, also threw an 18-yard TD to Brian Bratton before Damon Duval added a single and a field goal to give the Alouettes an 18-6 halftime lead.
Calvillo now trails only Damon Allen, who had 394 touchdown passes in 23 seasons.
Nick Setta staked the Tiger-Cats (2-2) to an early lead with a 41-yard field goal in the first quarter before adding a 15-yarder early in the second.
