How to Watch the 2022 World Cup on TV in Canada?
Because every single match of the tournament will be available on one of the five TSN channels, any cable provider that carries TSN will have the games available for viewing. That includes: Rogers, Shaw, Bell, Cogeco, Vidéotron and more.
For French speakers, if your cable provider is Vidéotron, Bell, Telus, SunWire, TekSavvy or Cogeco, that means that you’ll have access to the french RDS coverage for all games.
Cable Provided Online Streaming Options
One of the most handy things about having access to your cable through mobile apps and websites is that you can watch the World Cup games from wherever you are! Your cable provider will have given you access to login to the web versions of their channels, for example, this is the TSN website: https://www.tsn.ca/live
