Hopefully this is paving the way for them to add some more channels to the lineup.
The re-alignment has created a few gaps in the numbers...
Between locals and News: 213, 214
Between News and Sports: 216, 217
Between Sports and Education: 226
Between Education and Entertainment: 231, 232
Between Entertainment and Movies: 239, 240, 241, 242
I wonder if they forgot to move AMC because it doesn't really fit at 225 between Speed and NGTV?
Looking at Bell's channel lineup (
http://www.bell.ca/web/tv/en/all_reg...neup_alpha.pdf), as best as I can tell, here are the English language channels that Bell has that Shaw doesn't right now:
APTN, City-TV, Equator, KTLA, Leafs TV (Ontario only), PBS East, Raptors TV, Rush, TCM, TFO (Ontario only?), Treasure, WPIX, and WSBK
CBC News Channel is also available in HD. Setanta is supposed to have an HD channel available as of August 1, and Sportsnet One is launching later this month.
