I personally watch Netflix and use my cell as my only phone. Are you a cord cutter ?

My two year contract with Telus Optic is over when the kids go back to school in the fall. I think I will try and get on a sweet unlimited home wi fi plan, keep going with my Netflix and get Amazon Prime, maybe You Tube Premium, cut the cord!

Shaw Direct.

I'm also not interested in Freedom up here in the interior of BC. Rogers isn't very good and Freedom uses Rogers. So no thanks.

Depending on how you stream CBC just launched their GEM app for Firestick and Roku. Free with limited commercials. I don't watch much CBC stuff generally but was impressed that it has a ton of content. You can also watch the cbc feed from any timezone.

I just checked and CBC Gem is not an available channel on Roku.

The CBC website about online streaming was udpated 3 days ago says:

Roku

The CBC Gem app is currently not supported on Roku.
