Re: What is CBC Sports?

Think about those who do not pay tax, yet, like me. :)

Streaming is cheaper and you don't need any license to occupy channel frequency. Economically it makes sense if you have just few things to...

Re: What is CBC Sports?

Yes, I am interested in events listed in the schedule column "CBCsports.ca". I assume it's streamed on the Web site and it's not available as TV broadcast, right?

Thanks!

Re: What is CBC Sports?

We are in GTA. I saw the Hockey Night - it's in the main CBC schedule and in CBC Sports schedule, but other events are only on CBC Sports somehow. So I am confused, since they overlap.

Re: What is CBC Sports?

Yes I checked that one. But there are schedules that do not match CBC English service except Hockey night. I thought it's a separate TV channel.

What is CBC Sports?

We tried to find it in main CBC schedule, find it as a separate channel, tried to look at Rogers and Bell - no luck. Is it online only? How do you watch it?

Any advice will be appreciated!

Re: Tax if less than 183 days in Canada

Thanks a lot for your patience, I missed those paragraphs somehow. I wonder if new pair of glasses will be subsidized by OHIP (as soon as I will be eligible).:D

Re: Tax if less than 183 days in Canada

Yes! We landed in 2006 but finally moved in September. I know I'd better fill out this form to get confirmed that we were not tax residents in 2006 and 2007, but it's a different question.

Re: Tax if less than 183 days in Canada

Re: Non-resident bank account - is it worth the hassle?
