Just what Canada needed...another sports channel, run by
state-paid losers who aren't able to run stuff.
Rah ...!
Yeah, competition sure is a terrible thing...maybe we should just go back to a monopoly...

This is great news... we're going to actually be able to see our athletes more than once every four years.

Still stalking me I see...perhaps a phone call to the RCMP is necessary.
I cancelled all my rogers/bell bullshit monopoly since they don't show Football (soccer), FTA for the win!

my question is on the other thread fruitloop.
I'm all for this if it means my Coronation Street is back on the air when some annoying sporting event is broadcast.
Bring it on! Give me back my corrie you commies!

Oh great……another Toronto based channel that will end up showing some card game in the GTA.
(Too bad David didn’t have his seatbelt on when he drove his car into the river!!!)

Does that mean we get to see the Little Tidmarsh-v-Upper Collywobble horseshoe game in prime time along with Hockey Night at the CBC?

If we're lucky they'll only go as low as broadcasting the farm teams............which means we get to watch the horse break in a new pair of shoes.
