This article lists all of thelocalover-the-airtelevision stations in the United States that are carried in Canada viacable/digital cable orsatellite. This list also includes stations that were formerly carried, but have since been dropped. Some of the stations listed also have their over-the-air signal overlapping major cities in Canada; a few are also available over-the-air only in Canada.
The stations are organized by market, starting in the east (Maine) and ending in the west (California). Not all stations are available in all areas. A station that has the word "bumped" next to it means that the station has been replaced by one of the stations from theCANCOM services, most likely either aBuffalo orDetroit local station in the east, or aSpokane orSeattle local station in the west.
These channels appear on certain cable systems in Canada. However, the CRTC has not authorized their distribution outside of the areas in which these channels can be picked up over-the-air; hence, they are not available for national distribution. There are other American stations available in Canada near the American border, but they are only available over-the-air and are not carried on any cable system.
These stations are listed assuperstations, and are carried on many if not most or all cable and satellite systems in Canada.

These stations are carried throughout theGreater Toronto Area, the Golden Triangle (Guelph, Kitchener/Waterloo, Cambridge) andGolden Horseshoe on a variety of cable systems.
