Shaw no longer broadcasting in the US

As many of you already know,  I have had to discontinue my Bell ExpressVu account because Bell stopped broadcasting Canadian content in the US.  They actually changed the satellite footprint and now you cannot get their satellite signal south of the boarder.
Many of you have been able to acceess Shaw Direct in  Florida last year.  Encouraged by the confidence that everyone had that this would continue, I called Shaw to confirm that they would continue to broadcast in Florida.  I talked to Ben in Shaw customer service looking to sign up.  According to him, about a week ago the FCC complained to the CRTC and the CRTC now have forced Shaw to shutdown US broadcasts as well. So, if you have Shaw now and are expecting to see a full season of hockey you might want to call Shaw customer support and check it out.
