ok, so I remember before that I couldn't get my free sat. radio reciever since they weren't sold in Canada or some s*** like that, but now the CRTC has opened canada airways to sat. radio and you can now buy recievers in Canada....does this mean I will be able to finally get my ******* Sirius?

Well, I just talked to my XM rep, and he said both Sirius and XM will be aired in CAN. They wont be exactly the same as the US virsion, because the CAN Gov. wants to get at least five strictly CAN channels. But that about all I know for now.

Then I would say no, you won't get the free receiver. If they put it on a different signal, your receiver won't recognize it. Besides, Mazda'a sick of that deal.

If you're in Canada, I don't think the deal will help you anyway...

sirius question

does sirius ready mean that i have to buy more sh*t for the radio to get it activated? I tried to subscribe but they need an ESN number for the unit and my radio doesnt have any menu for Sirius...do i need like an antenna or something?
