Bell will appeal a CRTC ruling that would force Canadian television networks to stop switching out American ads during the Super Bowl in favour of Canadian ones.

In its decision Jan. 29, the CRTC said that while Canadians have long complained about simsub, the practice is important for Canadian broadcasters, because they can use the ad revenue to pay for broadcasting rights to popular U.S. programs.
