These include Animal Planet, CTV Drama, CTV Life, CTV Sci-Fi, CTV News Channel, HGTV Canada, History, Hollywood Suite, ICI RDI, Max, NBA League Pass, Showcase HD, StudioCanal, Toon-a-Vision, Planète+ and W Network. These free previews will be available on Bell Fibe TV, Alt TV and Satellite TV.
Bell’s also offer some of its Crave and Super Écran content as a free preview. That includes the first seasons of Letterkenny, City on a Hill, La Malédiction de Jonathan Plourde, Lourd, Murder in the Bayou, Ray Donovan, The Affair and The L Word: Generation Q. These will be available until January 11th.
Finally, Bell will offer the Sonic the Hedgehog movie for free through Bell TV pay per view and video on-demand services until January 4th.

It’s unclear if other Canadian carriers plan to launch similar offers, although it’s worth noting several carriers waived fees and offered free TV channels earlier in the year due to COVID-19.
