Does anyone who provides TV coverage for SX realize it's not available in most of Canada still?

I'm over complaining about it at this point, year after year getting the shaft. Apparently expanding supercross' viewership outside of the US is a bad idea.

According to the PR, it sounds like you can watch it just about anywhere EXCEPT Canada in 2017...

I'm not sure how everything works , but it probably has to do with the networks not willing to pay to have it on. I know a lot of the Euro guys have complained over the years too , and I'm not sure what kind of package deal they get now either. I wish Feld or whoever , would make the damn thing at least available online with a good HD stream. Seems like every year we see all our brothers from outside the USA struggle to be able to watch these races....and it's bullshit.

MTS TV in Manitoba carries Fox Sports Racing. Nice. All you Canadians should move to Manitoba, where the current temperature is approximately minus 1 billion.......

I want the races back on ESPN2 with basic TV packages having that channel for a reasonable price. I can't even get Internet except on my phone with a Hotspot. I can watch in poor quality on YouTube when they get uploaded at least.
I'm in the states but still suffer from lack of moto on tv. I gave up and just watch the highlights on here or racer.x

They've finally got a Pay Per View thing going. At least for OZ and Europe - not sure for Canadians. It's the 6 months, you get it live and each race is only up for a week after the event, which sucks for those of us that are 'away' at times, It should be archived at the price - it makes Luongo look like a charitable Mafioso, by comparison. But, nonetheless, despite that rip off, I just coughed up the spondoolicks for it. $99 USD.

I'm hoping, with having paid, we'll get no ads, like MXGPs, but couldn't find any note to that - we'll probably still have to sit through endless ads.

I wish DC could get this for your Nationals, but I'm not holding my breath on it. Come on, take my money, DC! Evil

I'm in ontario, eastlink and I have fox sports racing

The commercials are the same 5 ones for like 2 years now but all the races are there

Luckily more every year go right on Fox

We also get the shaft in Canada because we aren't allowed fox sports go, With that I could watch the races anywhere

Are there any satellite TV companies besides direct TV and dish network? It's not worth over $100 a month to watch the races. Satalite is my only option where I live.

I would gladly buy that package, but it's not available in Canada!

Which is EXACTLY why I watch the race the next morning, on the computer. No bullshit, and done in 90 minutes. Other shit to do, listening to Ralph Malph prattle on like a retard isn't high in my list. Minimize the pain, go to gate drop for every heat, and click it as the last rider is shown crossing the finish line.

C'mon. The high tomorrow is only supposed to be -25. As for MTS, the service levels are hit and miss depending on where you live. In certain centers you can get HD everything, in the ass crack of Canada (rural Manitoba), they offer the digital package - that's right a bunch of channels sent digitally in Standard definition. Woo hoo!

I can get FS1 on an android box but its not HD. If anyone knows of an HD source/server on kodi lmk. Im using the No Limits build. Can also get it on the Cloud tv app, but not a good picture.
