What is the process for deciding what channels get added to the Cable lineup?
Networks that want to broadcast in Canada must first be approved by the CRTC, which regulates communications in Canada. Some channels that are approved are required to be carried, while others are discretionary. Discretionary channels are added based on subscriber interest and the business case for each channel. From time to time, surveys are taken and statistics are reviewed for consideration. EastLink’s goal is to offer the best selection of channels possible for your dollar.
