According to recent sources just now, WildBrain is exiting its Canadian television broadcast business, shuttering Family Channel, Family Jr., WildBrainTV, and Télémagino after both Rogers and Bell decided to drop the channels from their distribution services. The company was unable to negotiate a new carriage agreement with Rogers, which led to the decision to cease broadcast operations. As a result, the previously announced transaction to sell a majority stake in the channels to IoM Media...

Is anyone using an Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) for their Non-Copper Home phone service? When I say non-coper I mean providers such as Rogers Xfinity Home Phone, Bell Fiber Home phone, Cogeco Digital home phone or any other phone such as voip that is not delivered to your house using the traditional copper telephone network?

Corus to pull plug on some kids channels amid financial pressure - Cartt.ca
So this is pretty big.
Disney XD Canada, Disney Junior Canada, Disney La Chaine (French Disney Channel), Nickelodeon Canada and ABC Spark are being shut down on September 1st.

Let's just ignore the Cellular-versus-landline arguements for the moment.

If so many folks use VOIP instead of POTS now, why are there only analog phones on the store shelves in Canada? IP phones only seem to be sold to businesses. I understand that a business gets a PBX system or server and controls it's own totality.

I have Teksavvy VOIP, and they allow any ATA boxes, so also IP phones.

. . . maybe because IP phones usually come with a server, I haven't seen any model with an...

why aren't IP phones sold retail, when analog still is?

Hello

It was a canadian TV channel owned by Blue Ant Media. It shut down in 2015, and it aired comedy programming. If you remember anything about this channel, feel free to post it in the replies.

"The Flash" on Netflix Canada?

My apologies if this is the wrong place for it, but can someone tell me why Netflix Canada has not uploaded the two most recent episodes of The Flash? With CTV dropping the series there's no other way to watch it in Canada(unless you watch it on The CW).

This thread will discuss the schedule updates for Citytv broadcast network from Rogers Media for the broadcast year.

I post series premieres, schedule updates and specials based on press releases, as well as series renewals and cancellations as they are announced. I don't usually post on-going episode information, repeats or program descriptions, so you can click on the associated link if you want more info.

I'll start it off by saying I don't know how many times I've watched this video and blasted it louder than it should be.


Furthermore I'd like to personally thank the cameramen for finding the hottest chicks in the audience. LOL

Yes, you are correct, it is only October 11th. Happy Thanksgiving!

We received email notification (first time) that our plan is expiring in a few months.

We still need a home phone and we have a really good rate with Shaw/Rogers and Shaw/Rogers for this contract but Rogers is itching to get us onto a higher price plan. I'm trying to list my options.

I'm thinking of ditching Shaw for Telus. I have looked at some VOIP services like VOIP.MS which seems quite complex: billing in US dollars, you pay for incoming and outgoing calls including spam. Setting up...

End of a TV era: Bell to scrap your set-top box in favour of streaming, launches ‘unbreakable’ internet
Company to phase out set-top boxes in January. Bell also announces its 'unbreakable internet' which will continue to connect you to the web during power outages using wireless backups and fibre optical tech.

I've notice people mentioning getting a data SIM when in a foreign country. How does that affect voice calls? With VoLTE, phone calls are IP, so I would suspect should work OK, unless blocked. I know a 3rd party soft phone, such as Fongo will work, but what about the built in phone? Of course, WiFi calling works over WiFi anywhere, unless blocked.

tnx jk

VoLTE and VoNR on 5G are VoIP adapted to the cell network and encrypted with IPSec. WiFi calling is the same thing, but encapsulated...
