Basketball

National Basketball Association

The NBA's Canadian marketing arm is managed by Maple Leaf Sports & Entertainment, parent company of the Toronto Raptors. In turn, MLSE is majority-owned by Bell Canada and Rogers Communications; as such, coverage is mostly shared between their co-owned TSN and Sportsnet networks, along with the MLSE-owned NBA TV Canada. Toronto Raptors games are primarily aired by TSN and TSN2, with selected games airing on Sportsnet, Sportsnet One, or Sportsnet 360. Ancillary Raptors content, including game encores, air on NBA TV Canada.

All three broadcasters air assorted non-Raptors games throughout the season (TSN promoted that it would air 148 regular-season games in total during the 2017-18 season); NBA TV Canada typically airs selected NBA on ESPN games and simulcasts of games from U.S. regional sports networks (often via the U.S. version of NBA TV). All remaining games are available through the NBA League Pass out-of-market sports package.

TSN and NBA TV have the Canadian TV rights to broadcast the NBA Summer League.

U.S. college basketball

TSN owns the Canadian broadcast rights to the NCAA Men's Division I Basketball Tournament through a deal with ESPN International. CBS coverage of the tournament is also available in Canada. TSN also simulcast regular-season games from ESPN.

Coverage of games is also available from U.S. networks carried in Canada, such as Big Ten Network and CBS Sports Network, along with broadcast network coverage or syndicated packages. An out-of-market sports package offered by some providers includes other games from U.S. outlets that are not otherwise available in Canada.

Football

Canadian Football League

  • TSN - all games including playoffs and Grey Cup
  • RDS - all Montreal and Ottawa games, as well as select additional games throughout the season, the playoffs and the Grey Cup.

National Football League

Contracts are current as of the 2017 NFL season.

  • CTV - Sunday afternoon games in both the "early" (1:00 pm ET) and "late" (4:05 / 4:25 pm ET) windows, most playoff games, and the Super Bowl.
  • TSN - Sunday afternoon games in both the "early" (1:00 pm ET) and "late" (4:05 / 4:25 pm ET). Airs all primetime game packages, including Sunday Night Football, Monday Night Football, and Thursday Night Football. Additional Sunday afternoon games, and playoff games interfering with other major events carried on CTV, may air on one or more of the TSN feeds. Through its relationship with the network, TSN also carries ESPN's NFL studio programming, including NFL Live, Sunday NFL Countdown, and Monday Night Countdown.
  • CTV Two simulcasts with TSN all primetime game packages nationally televised by U.S. broadcast networks, including Sunday Night Football and selected Thursday Night Football games.
  • RDS / RDS2 - French-language coverage.
  • DAZN - NFL Game Pass and streaming of all games as part of its overall service. DAZN also distributes the NFL Sunday Ticket service in Canada; while DAZN initially planned to only distribute a digital out-of-market product in Canada, the company backtracked and revived Sunday Ticket following user complaints over the quality of its streams.

Due to Canadian regulations that permit stations from different areas to be carried in the same market, several games may be available in each of the Sunday timeslots through a combination of domestic and American stations from different areas, without a subscription to Sunday Ticket. By contrast, outside a handful of areas where multiple neighbouring network affiliates are available, no more than three games may be aired in a given U.S. market on any Sunday afternoon (up to four games in week 17).

Canadian university football

As of 2016, Sportsnet and TVA Sports broadcasts the national U Sports playoff games, namely the Mitchell Bowl, the Uteck Bowl, and the Vanier Cup. TVA Sports carries many QSSF games. In 2016, Sportsnet's sister broadcast network City began broadcasting a four-game U Sports Game of the Week package. Games not covered by these contracts are often carried by local cable community channels.

In 2015, Global aired a Hardy Trophy semi-final and championship game as part of the Shaw TV (Shaw Cable) Canada West conference package (at the time, Shaw directly owned Global).

U.S. college football

Many ESPN College Football games are aired by TSN's feeds, including regular season and bowl games (which were, in the past, shared with Sportsnet 360, and not withstanding conflicts with other programming such as the World Junior Hockey Championship), and the College Football Playoff. TSN also carries ESPN's pre-game show College GameDay.

Coverage of games is also available from U.S. networks carried in Canada, such as BeIN Sports, Big Ten Network and CBS Sports Network, along with broadcast network coverage or syndicated packages (such as ACC Network). An out-of-market sports package offered by some providers includes other games from U.S. outlets that are not otherwise available in Canada (such as Fox Sports Networks, and ESPN games not picked up by the TSN channels).

Golf

  • TSN and RDS holds rights to all four of the Men's major golf championships--Masters Tournament, the U.S. Open, the Open Championship, and the PGA Championship.
    • U.S. network coverage of the Masters and Open Championship are simulcast by CTV for simsub purposes. Since the change of rightsholder in 2016, TSN has deferred early-round coverage of the Open to Golf Channel, which is carried by most Canadian television providers.
  • TSN also carries a limited schedule of PGA Tour coverage (including the early rounds of the Canadian Open), Ryder Cup and President's Cup. TSN is also the exclusive broadcaster of the Canadian Women's Open, Asia-Pacific Amateur Championship and Latin America Amateur Championship.
  • Global and RDS carry live coverage of most PGA Tour events carried by U.S. network television (weekend rounds).
  • Golf Channel is available on Canadian television providers, and the majority of its programming (including coverage of PGA Tour events, the European Tour, and LPGA) is carried in the country.

Hockey

National Hockey League

Rogers Communications is the sole national rightsholder of the NHL in Canada as of the 2014-15 NHL season. Most national telecasts air on Sportsnet properties, and include, but are not limited to:

  • Scotiabank Wednesday Night Hockey; exclusive national window on Sportsnet on Wednesday nights.
  • Thursday Night Hockey; Thursday night games on Sportsnet 360
  • Simulcasts of games from U.S. broadcasters, including regional sports networks and NHL on NBC coverage.
  • Hockey Night in Canada: exclusive national window for Canadian teams on Saturday nights, multiple games airing across CBC Television, City, and Sportsnet channels.
    • In rare circumstances, due to non-hockey programming conflicts, the Sportsnet regional channels may air different games. However, all four Sportsnet regional channels are available nationwide through the digital services of most providers.
  • Rogers Hometown Hockey: National Sunday-night game on Sportsnet, with a travelling pre-game show broadcast from various Canadian cities.
  • Stanley Cup Playoffs coverage; early rounds divided between CBC and Sportsnet. All games from the conference finals onward are simulcast by both networks.
  • Canadian distribution and marketing rights to the NHL.tv (Rogers NHL Live) and NHL Centre Ice services, which carries out-of-market games and U.S. nationally televised games not aired by Sportsnet channels.
  • Hockey Night in Canada: Punjabi Edition: Coverage of selected Hockey Night in Canada games and playoff games with Punjabi language commentary on Omni Television.

French-language rights were sub-licensed to Quebecor Media; all coverage airs on TVA Sports. La super soirée LNH serves as the flagship broadcast on Saturday nights, typically featuring the Montreal Canadiens.

Regional

Canadian teams also contract with local or regional broadcasters for selected pre-season and regular season games not covered by the national contracts. These deals are separate from the national rights deal, and may cover up to 60 regular-season games per season. Rights are current as of the 2017-18 NHL season.

  • Vancouver Canucks: Sportsnet Pacific
  • Edmonton Oilers: Sportsnet West
  • Calgary Flames: Sportsnet West
  • Winnipeg Jets: TSN3
  • Toronto Maple Leafs: Sportsnet Ontario (16 games), TSN4 (26 games) (English)
    • Rights to the Maple Leafs' regional telecasts are divided equally between TSN and Sportsnet (whose parent companies own a joint majority stake in the team's parent company). Of Sportsnet's 26 regional Leafs games, ten are broadcast nationally in conjunction with Rogers' national NHL rights, with Molson Canadian as presenting sponsor.
    • The team-owned Leafs Nation Network airs replays and other ancillary coverage of the team.
  • Ottawa Senators: TSN5 and RDS/RDS2
  • Montreal Canadiens: TSN2 and RDS

Each team's regional game broadcasts are restricted to viewers of that team's designated home broadcast region as assigned by the NHL. Outside said region, these broadcasts are made available exclusively through NHL Centre Ice (TV) or Rogers NHL Live (streaming). If the originating channel is available outside a team's region (e.g. out-of-market Sportsnet feeds), the game broadcasts must be blacked out in these other areas. Sportsnet also operates part-time channels for the Canucks, Flames, and Oilers in case of scheduling conflicts: these channels are tied to the Sportsnet One licence. During the period that it held the rights, Sportsnet used City station CJNT as the overflow channel for Canadiens games instead.

Under previous (2002-14) rights deals with RDS, the Canadiens forewent a separate regional rights contract (at the time of its establishment, RDS was the only national French-language sports channel in Canada) and allowed all of its games to be broadcast nationally in French in conjunction with RDS's package. With the transition to TVA Sports as national rightsholder, the Canadiens chose to negotiate a 12-year regional rights deal with RDS (the team is partially owned by the channel's parent BCE Inc.) in the team's designated broadcast region.

U.S. teams in close proximity to the Canada-US border are now also able to sell Canadian regional broadcast rights to their games. As of the 2013-14 season, Bell Satellite TV and Bell Fibe TV own regional rights to Buffalo Sabres broadcasts for portions of Canada within a 50-mile radius of First Niagara Center, approximately stretching from Niagara Falls to the community of Stoney Creek in Hamilton. Sabres game broadcasts are available to Bell TV subscribers in this region at no extra cost, and moreover are no longer available as part of the NHL Centre Ice package through other providers serving this region. The Detroit Red Wings, whose market borders on Windsor, Ontario, is presumably able to sell similar rights but has not yet done so.

As with other sports properties, game broadcasts on U.S. terrestrial stations carried in Canada, such as the NBC broadcast network's national rights package as well as WGN-TV's broadcasts of the Chicago Blackhawks, are not subject to blackout for Canadian cable/satellite subscribers receiving those stations.

Canadian Hockey League

Sportsnet and TVA Sports airs the Memorial Cup tournament and selected other games from across the CHL's member leagues. Many regular-season games are aired locally by the applicable cable community channels.

U.S. college hockey

  • NCAA Division I Men's Ice Hockey Championship: TSN and RDS (sub-licensed from ESPN)

Other events

  • TSN and RDS holds broadcast rights to national championships and most international events sanctioned by Hockey Canada (including but not limited to IIHF world championships, Telus Cup, Royal Bank Cup, Esso Cup, and the Allan Cup)
  • TSN and RDS also holds broadcast rights to the Spengler Cup.
  • Sportsnet and TVA Sports holds broadcast rights to the American Hockey League and the Canadian Hockey League
