Canadian channel index September 2026

One list of 214 Canadian feeds. Every service measured against it.

An independent index of what Canadian households actually lose when the cable box goes back, and what gets it back. Everything here is bought at full retail and watched on a Canadian line before it is written about.

How the index is built

Every service was paid for at full price

One list, everyone measured against it

The same 214 Canadian feeds, checked service by service. Nothing is scored on a provider's own channel count.

Checked live, not from a webpage

Each feed is opened and watched for thirty seconds on a Canadian connection. A listing only counts once it has played.

Re-checked every quarter

Line-ups drift. Anything more than ninety days old is re-run before it stays in the index.

Who checks it

Renee Charbonneau, Editor

Renee cut cable in Montreal and documents what replaces it. She keeps a channel list of everything a Canadian household actually loses when the cable box goes back, and checks each service against that list on a fibre line in Quebec and a cable line in Alberta.
