    Really? Wow, I didn't know that. I'm a little surprised, actually. I didn't think that she would be interested.





    That would be your answer, Spermy. Analog cable is suppose to be shut down by Aug. 31 of this year.

    August 31st 2011: Deadline for DTV and HDTV in Canada - Digital Forum

    With that in mind, Rogers is planning on launching the channel in the fall of this year.

    My understanding is cable is unaffected (for now). The writing is on the wall. We are about 3 years behind the USA in this too.
