MODERATORS
Actually, the broadcast vs streaming rights might separate.
Bell Media has broadcast rights to SyFy and CW shows in Canada, but Crave hasn’t had the streaming licences.
If Paramount wants to put Star Trek on Paramount+ and PlutoTV in Canada, Bell Media might pass on a nonexclusive licence renewal for Crave while keeping the linear licences.
Is it still on Netflix? I lost access when they stopped password sharing but last I checked they had everything before Discovery.
Star Trek has been leaving Netflix in all countries as its licences run out.
It hasn’t been available in Canada other than through Bell Media’s platforms.
@StillPaisleyCat @Tired8281 There are two #startrek channels on Pluto, which is free with ads. One runs TOS and TNG. The other ran DS9 for months and now runs Voyager.
I have PlutoTV in Canada. Star Trek doesn’t come up when I search.
It’s also the case that Paramount+ offers little Star Trek in Canada.
Yes it does.
There are different licensing agreements in Canada, especially for Star Trek which is huge here. TNG was, during its run, the top show in Canada, not just in genres shows. Picard has spiked to that level in some of its season premieres.
Are you in Canada?
Sincerely that’s not taking me to anyplace available here.
That’s why @ValueSubtracted@startrek.website and I are super curious to see what happens when all the shows other than SNW go off Crave at the end of July.
It’s arguable that Star Trek has been relatively more popular in Canada than any country, including the United States.
Bell Media has had the licences in Canada for both linear and streaming. (Netflix with a nonexclusive for the older shows is an exception.).
Extracting Star Trek from Bell Media couldn’t have been easy. Bell Media is a subsidiary of Bell Canada Enterprises (BCE) which has not only largest landline, fiberoptic and mobile telephone networks. Through Bell Media it owns the largest private television network, news channel. They also happen to be the general manager and part owner of Pinewood Toronto Studios where Discovery has had leases for its enormous soundstages.
Must have happened real recently, I was watching DS9 on Netflix in Canada in April.
edit: https://www.netflix.com/ca/title/70158330 ??
You are correct. The classic series are all still listed on Netflix in Canada.
I‘be never actually watched them there so they haven’t come up in my algorithm.
