Thanks all, I set up a mumble server on a local Montreal host. We’re currently using a realm to play but I might switch it to a full fledged server with the same guys.

A lot of the suggestions I liked on paper, like Revolt or Matrix and might take for myself. But the fact that there were community servers access directly in the app and no way for me to regulate their visibility for my kids instantly disqualified them for this specific use case.

With Mumla they only see the server I set up for them and I can control who comes in.

Sobeys’ Compliment and Metro’s Selection and very much Canadian alternatives and they cost the same as heinz normally. According to buy beaver there’s also Western Family.

I mean live tv is live tv.

They don’t play ads on “on demand” content.

Edit: I checked and actually the On Demand is basically the ability to “catch up” on live tv and will play it as is ads included without the ability to skip ahead so that’s pretty shitty.

I just find it as a good alternative to watch live tv legally on the cheap.

Canadian Streaming service missing from the list : RiverTV

Basically offers what Stack TV offers on prime

Depending where you are it’s honestly not hard to avoid amazon.

I’ve cancelled prime in January and since then, I found that every thing I needed and got there for convenience, I got from elsewhere for the same if not less and with the same kind of shipping speed.

Hell, just this week I was setting up my old vita for my son and found I needed a replacement charger. I found it from a used game store in Ontario, came to me in 2 days.

I’m ashamed of being lazy these past few years and using them so much when I could have supported local businesses instead…
