Burris completed 18-of-30 passes for 282 yards and two TDs for the Stampeders (5-3), who had lost seven straight road games against the Lions.
B.C. tied the game, 29-29, on a three-yard touchdown pass to Jason Clermont by Buck Pierce with 6:27 left in the fourth quarter.
Calgary countered as Burris led a six-play, 51-yard drive, giving the Stampeders the lead for good when he connected with Brett Ralph for a five-yard score. The touchdown was Ralph's only reception of the game.
Calgary's Ken-Yon Rambo had five catches for 106 yards to lead all receivers, while Nik Lewis caught Burris' other touchdown pass.
Pierce finished 8-of-13 for 103 yards with a TD and an interception for the Lions (4-4), who lost for the second time in three games.
