Question

In hotels in (US-Canada) border cities, do they offer TV stations of the other country?

Answer 1

Yes. But not only hotels. On everyones television it does.

Answer 2

Canadian cable has American and Canadian television stations. They differ from region to region and company to company, but they usually include CW, ABC, Fox, CBS, and TBS/Peachtree. Most hotels offer cable.

Answer 3

I have a Canadian satellite dish, live in Northen Ontario, no where near a border crossing....I get channels from Detroit, Seattle,. Spokane, New York, Georgia, Florida......blah....there still isn't anything decent on to watch.

*hello sunshine: you should get a sat, I get HBO, although I haven't watched anything on it since Sopranos ended last year.

Answer 4

Well, I'm not in a hotel but I live in Detroit and my TV gets reception from CBC in English as well as French. I use an antenna for my TV.

Answer 5

I just got back from Sault Ste Marie, ON (bordered with Mich. city of same name).  The hotel  I stayed in (Days Inn) had sattelite or cable, and all of the channels were Canadian.  I would think generally only stations using an antenna would be the same on both sides, because TV and radio waves don't stop at the border.

Answer 6

Typically, yes.... it depends on the type of cable connection they have, same as in people's homes, whether or not you'll get certain channels.  Canadian cable companies don't broadcast HBO, which is a pain in the butt... if there was one US channel that a Canadian hotel didn't have, this would probably be it.

Answer 7

We live In Vancouver  get seattle channels all us net works on cable  on digital  LA  Boston  New York  Detroit
