The Commission calls the Russian government-run services "not in the public interest." Many of the big cable companies had already voluntarily taken them off their systems. 

"The Commission finds that the continued authorization for broadcasting distribution undertakings (BDUs) to distribute RT (formerly known as Russia Today) and RT France is not in the public interest as their content appears to constitute abusive comment since it tends or is likely to expose the Ukrainian people to hatred or contempt on the basis of their race, national or ethnic origin and that their programming is antithetical to the achievement of the policy objectives of the Broadcasting Act."

CRTC Decision

RT and RT France can no longer be distributed by Canadian television service providers
