Well,

I find it hard to believe as HDnet is not authorized in Canada. ExpressVU has shown some HDnet programming in the past but the chances of an actual HDnet channel popping up for keeps is slim to none.

Kryspy
 
Show us the link to the CRTC approval for HDNet. Bell (thru Bell Globemedia) has been one of the companies opposing this service for the last 2 years.
 
HDNET programs are being shown on PPV on Bell for 5.99.

From Bell's PPV site:

"HDNet, the leader in high definition broadcasting, produces and televises more hours of original HDTV sports, entertainment and news programming each week than any other network

There will be a new block of programming each weekend featuring: Across America, Get Out!, Face 2 Face with Roy Firestone, Bikini Destinations and Art Mann Presents."

We won't be getting the sports programming, you can be sure, as other companies in Canada would hold those rights. It looks like the original regular programming from HDNET will be shown.
 
So Bell Canada is up to it's old tricks again. I can't believe that Marc Cuban was naive enough to sell a few programs to Bell - he just shot himself in the foot about getting HDNet approval for Canada.
