From the CRTC website:

"Application by the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation (CBC), in partnership with SIRIUS Satellite Radio and Standard Radio Inc., for a broadcasting licence to carry on a national multi-channel subscription radio service, to be delivered by satellite and terrestrial transmitters, for direct reception by subscribers.

The proposed service would initially offer 78 channels, four of which would be produced in Canada by the CBC.

The applicant proposes to charge a basic monthly fee of $12.95."

XM Radio has teamed up with Canadian Satellite Radio Incorporated (CSR) (I believe it is CHUM) and are proposing a fee of $12.99 a month with 101 channels (4 produced in Canada).

Approval has not yet been granted to begin broadcasting in Canada. I've heard that it should be sometime this year, maybe before the summer.
