I will even go so far to say that I would be willing to pay money to never have substitutions. That way the Canadian networks can take that money to "create their own shows."

This is why I think simsubbing and NHL blackouts should be illegal in Canada for people with digital cable or Satellite.
If I pay for extra US channels, which I do, and I pay for all 4 sportsnets, which I do, then why don't I get all of their programming? People who just pay for basic cable should get the simsubs. I on the other hand should get to watch what I paid for.
It actually makes me more angry about stupid sportsnet. Why are Bell, Shaw etc even allowed to offer a channel that I cannot watch? I effing paid for it, therefore you cannot block out my programming. That is the whole point of paying for it, is that I can watch all of their programming.
What a sham. At least we don't have to deal with the FCC or the MPAA. The two Naziest regimes that have ever existed.
