the only reason those in michigan get CBC is because of their proximity to canada.

CBC newsworld is avaliable on satellite in the US, but I think thats all.

Why would they want canadian channels? They have enough of their own. The only reason we get US TV is because if we didn't we'd only have 15 channels.

For me anyway...I realize some of you would rather watch your toenails grow than watch hockey. That's cool...whatever gets yer pecker hard.
That made me laugh. +1

if they didnt give us CBC in the Detroit area there would be a riot. We watch it mostly for hockey but they also run some good late night movies. Before cable CBC was one of the stations you could get with an antenna

Yah, I agree with that.

I watch really only CBC, Global, TSN, TLC, Sportnset, The Score, Discovery Channel, History Television, and NASA TV via the internet.

One Show that i've started to watch is "The Hour" on CBC with George Stromobopolousjsiugdslkj from Muchmusic. Its actually a pretty good show.

Im just pissed off I techically PAY for like Fox NBC CBS and so on...and I get the global, CH and CTV feeds of it even when I watch that channel.

This only bothers me one night of the year.....The Super Bowl...because now I can't watch the expensive commercials.
