I think most Canadian television consumers just don't really understand the idea of Simsub. However the NFL and Bell are both making a huge deal about this on Parliament Hill and with the CRTC directly.
I definitely think a lot of people will be watching CTV thinking that they're going to get to watch the US commercials because they just don't understand how it works. There's also the fact that nowadays a lot of the commercials are released several days in advance so a lot of people have probably already seen them while watching a morning show or on YouTube or something.
