CFL teams are converting two-point attempts at a high rate

Apples to apples...maybe...maybe not for the NFL...but it's not Deflate Gate...

The CFL has moved the one-point attempt to the 25, which makes the kick the same length as in the NFL, since the CFL goal post is at the front of the 25-yard end zone. The early results suggest that it could make more sense to go for two more often.

CFL also has a wider field and a deeper end zone. I wouldn't expect the same results in the NFL.

Plus they play with an extra receiver, they allow multiple players to be in motion (including forward motion) at the snap, and the defense has to play a yard out from the line of scrimmage.

yup. been entertaining. In one game earlier this month the Argos vs Sask, Toronto's kicker went down so they were going for 2 every time. Game went to 2 possessions each in OT and the Argos won it on a 2pt conversion 42-40
