What is a safety in CFL?

If you are referring to the position, a safety is the approximate equivalent to the free safety position in American football.

If a player is tackled within his own end zone or steps out of the back of his own end zone the opposing team is awarded two points for a "safety" and the tackled player's team is then required to kick the ball off to their opponents.
