They can't. They need licensing agreements to stream the content in Canada and now with Shomi and Crave joining the battle there are going to be more competitors for content.

The content sellers may sell the same asset to more than one of them, but I'm not sure the one buying will want that - they will want exclusivity.

So any "interesting" content will now have at least 3 bidders, similar to how the US has Netflix and Hulu.
