    2021

    CBC has no money and doesn't compete for pro sports anymore

    CFL is on TSN-only because its their #1 property and forces you to subscribe to TSN. NFL is on CTV because only CTV is allow to simulcast (override us signal and insert their commercials), TSN can't do that.

    The CBC gets over a billion dollars yearly in funding. Not sure how they have no money. Regardless hopefully the CFL goes to the open market in 2021 and gets competitive bids. TSN pays more for the Regional Ottawa Senators rights than they do for the higher rated National CFL rights.

    The CFL chose not to allow CBC to bid in 2007 because Mr.Braley does not like the CBC(They had a technician strike in 2005 that involved announcer less games).Elliot Friedman stated that history and accessibility did not matter to the CFL BOG.Rick Lalacheur,mentioned in an interview with TSN 1040 this past week, that Mr.Braley does not seem interested selling the franchise.

    When the game is on CTV they take over the US Feed (NBC, Fox, ABCN CBS) in Canada, so you will see the same Canadian commercials on both CTV and the US channel. When the NFL game is Only on TSN you will see US commercials on the US channel.

    The CFL is really the #12 property for TSN. NHL,NFL,Maple Leafs, Canadiens, Senators,Jets,EPL,Hockey Canada,NBA,Raptors,MLS all have much higher priority than the CFL.It will probably move to #13 come August of next year.
