Canadian iTunes TV Coming This Week
Arstechnica sources are pinpointing this week for the launch of television shows via iTunes in Canada.
Ars notes that upon launch, the store will only contain a modest amount of content, including shows from CBC, CTV, and some US TV shows (excluding content from NBC, of course).
Canada will make the third country with TV programming available via iTunes, in addition to the US and the UK.
The company plans to begin adding shows quietly to the store as early as [Tuesday] afternoon or evening, with an official launch expected for Wednesday if things go smoothly

Awesome news! I just started putting the gears in motion to cancel my Rogers cable account.
I got a new 42" Aquos and I'm waiting for MacWorld to get an AppleTV.... then bye bye Rogers cable! Hello AppleTV.
Perfect timing!
