Can anybody tell me if CBC or CTV news channels are available in the USA and if they are, are they promoted like American newschannels are promoted in Canada? I think not,so why are we so ready to embrace American [eg. Fox News] propoganda when the Americans don't want Canadian propoganda. Each country has their own interests.
Don't take this as a promotion of FOX, but I believe its seen in about 50 or 60 countries. Obviously CNN is seen worldwide.

CBC is seen in border areas of the USA, probably in a similar way you might see a Spokane PBS station. I'm not sure if its accessible further south.

That Fox is seen in 50 or 60 countries is probably more to do with Media Mogul, Rupert Murdoch, buying and kowtowing [to eg. the Red Chinese] then with the quality of its news.

Thank's Lanny for the information on CBC in the USA, maybe a deal could be worked. We bring in Fox on our cable and sattelite and they bring in CBC. Is BBC easily available in the States or are they complete navel gazers in this area.
