$4 - History
Total $55
I think TSN is actually going to lose out huge on this. They hold rights to two NFL games/week... Can't think of anything else.

$8 is the cost to Shaw. They're not going to re-sell it to the consumer at cost. They might not go as high as $15 like I guessed either, though. We'll see!
The article also said that the "skinny" bundle must include mandatory distribution Canadian channels, and "could" include US networks. Hence my wish that the US networks are included, and not sold as a separate bundle or package (like how timeshift is now).
