Question

Can canadians get the $4o.oo coupon for the box also?

Answer 1

Only the US is switching to digital. Canada is not eligible for the $40 coupon as it is issued by the US government for US citizens. Canadians wont need the box.

Answer 2

It's only for Americans.  THye have property right there so when the governmetn de-values or takes their property they have to compensate them.

Answer 3

What's advertised on US tv doesn't apply to Canada. We're not making the switch til 2011. If you have cable or satellite, you don't need a box.
