I think they own it in partnership with bellglobe media. Not exactly sure how it works out.
Oh, here, it's right in the wiki link:

Today the majority owner of TSN is CTVglobemedia, which became CTV's parent in early 2001. ESPN retains a minority share, and as part of that restructuring in 2001, got CTV to agree to change the name to ESPN Canada. That change never went through, partly due to the popularity of the TSN brand in Canada but primarily because the CRTC, Canada's broadcasting regulator, refused to allow the name change.

So ESPN has a minority share of TSN. I thought they had a bigger investment. My mistake.
