Bell & Rogers Announce Specialty Channel Cooperation
They're two of the country's biggest rivals, but that doesn't mean they can't get along. Bell & Rogers have come to an agreement that will let some of their proprietary specialty channels be available on their competitor's systems.
"As part of the agreement, Bell Fibe TV and Satellite TV subscribers will now have access to Rogers Sports & Media channels HGTV, Food Network, Discovery, Magnolia Network and Investigation Discovery, along with continued access to Bravo."
And Rogers Xfinity clients can continue to see things on CTV Comedy, Sci-Fi and the newly launched USA Network, among others.
Full details here.

NO. Business is still business now, running more smoothly, instead of being a stupid war over who carries what.

None of this would have happened if Rogers hadn’t been the lowlife scum that they are and pouched services from Bell and Corus. I’m actually surprised Bell caved, and too bad they did. Rogers were crapping themselves over the fact that only their subscribers could get HGTV & Food, after sticking it to Corus. Citytv Plus is allegedly not catching on and is costing Rogers. Good.

Friends say they don't like that cheap shot "City TV Plus...it's the one that really stacks up!"
