Canada - 7 teams
$5.2B over 12 years = $433M per year
$61.9M per team per year

The US contract is worth approximately 14% of the value of the Canadian contract.
It's too bad Canadian teams need to share their contract with the Americans. This comes to a total of $633M for national TV contracts divided by 30 equals $21.1M per team.
