Rogers has received CRTC approval for
a new mainstream sports channel.
Programming will include NHL hockey games involving Canadian teams, Major
League Baseball games, Union of European Football Associations soccer and
other mainstream sports.
In its application submitted last September, Rogers said that the new
network will air "programming dedicated to all aspects of sports with an
emphasis on mainstream Canadian professional sports."
The service has proposed to offer over 50% of its programming in high
definition format with a view of moving towards 90% by the end of its
licence term in August 2016.
