Funny you mention this Paul. Over in the Turner Classic Movies website very often a thread is started by one or more of our Canadian members who express their dismay that TCM's programming is different north of the 49th and who were really looking forward to watching a particular film that'll be broadcast only in the U.S. but not up your way.

It has something to do with them not owning the Canadian rights to show it.

You are right about that if there is no Canadian distributor it cannot be shown here. Recently someone posted a link to a new MC orientated movie that looked like it would go over well here in Canada so I inquired into distribution from a friend in T.O. in the business. His comment was a good way to sink a big hole in the road to your retirement so stay away.

With Neflix there is any easy way to trick it into think it is a US box. Instructions readily available on Youtube.
