Our canadian problem is money, broadcasting rights, cancon quotas and ratings.
Bell and Corus have tons of money for program acquisition, but advertisement revenues are low and limited for a retro channel, and asking BDUs to increase subscription revenues ain't justifiable. Money-losing channels are shut down, so that's why DejaView runs on automatic pilot on a server in a closet, cheap expenses on programming, no effort whatsoever, makes pocket-change revenues for the company's bottom line. Sometimes, we, canadians, would prefer quality products and services.
