How to Watch the NFL in Canada (2026-27): TV Channels and Streaming

Short version: every NFL game is on DAZN; the biggest games each week are also on TSN, CTV and CTV2 through your cable or satellite provider (or a TSN streaming subscription); French coverage is on RDS. There is no NFL Sunday Ticket in Canada — DAZN is the equivalent.

Cable and satellite: TSN, CTV, CTV2, RDS

Bell Media holds the NFL's Canadian TV rights. Each week it spreads the games across its channels:

Because TSN runs five feeds (TSN1–TSN5), the Sunday afternoon games are split across them — check today's NFL listings for the exact feed rather than assuming TSN1. If you live near the border, your provider may also carry the US network affiliates (FOX, CBS, NBC from Seattle, Buffalo, Plattsburgh or Burlington), which show the regional US game of the week.

Streaming every game: DAZN

DAZN Canada has carried the full NFL package since 2017. A subscription includes:

• Every regular-season and playoff game live, including the Super Bowl
• NFL RedZone on Sunday afternoons
• NFL Network 24/7
• Full replays and condensed games

DAZN is the only way to watch every game in Canada — the TV channels above carry three to five games per Sunday, not all of them. The NFL app and NFL+ do not offer live games in Canada.

Streaming the TV feeds: TSN Standard / Premium and CTV.ca

If you only want the games that are on TV anyway, you don't need DAZN. TSN's own subscription (formerly TSN+) streams TSN1–5 with no cable required: TSN Standard ($24.99/month) has the games TSN airs, and TSN Premium ($29.99/month) adds NFL RedZone on Sundays plus 24 extra games, ManningCasts and alt-casts. Games on CTV and CTV2 stream free on CTV.ca and the CTV app when you sign in with a participating TV provider. RDS streams its French feed the same way on RDS.ca.

Which games are in Canada each week?

Bell picks the CTV/TSN games a few weeks ahead, usually the national US windows (Sunday night, Monday night, Thursday night) plus the best afternoon matchups. If your team isn't in one of those windows, DAZN is your only live option. We list every NFL game on Canadian TV with its channel on the NFL on TV tonight page, and the full week ahead on the sports this week page.

Cost comparison

Prices change every season, so we don't list them here — check each service. For 2026 DAZN lists $24.99/month on a 12-month term or $249.99 upfront (Ultimate $29.99 / $269.99); TSN is monthly.

Free options

With an antenna, CTV and CTV2 come in free in most cities, which covers the Sunday afternoon game they carry each week and the Super Bowl. In Vancouver, Toronto, Montréal and Ottawa the US border stations add the FOX and CBS regional games.
