Cable TV: The game airs on CTV stations in English and RDS in French. It’s also on CBS, but in markets with local CTV stations, the CBS signal will be replaced with the CTV signal on cable. The CRTC has announced it will change this rule, only for the Super Bowl, in time for next year, but Bell Media is fighting it in court.

Antenna: If your TV receives digital over- the- air signals, you can tune it to channel 12.1 to watch the CTV broadcast. If your antenna is good and you want to watch U. S. commercials, you can try getting the CBS broadcast from WCAX- TV Burlington on Channel 3.1.

CTV/ RDS GO: Subscribers with Bell TV, Shaw Direct and some other providers can download the CTV GO app to their smartphones or tablets to watch the game, or stream it from the CTV GO website. If those subscribers are also subscribed to RDS, they can download RDS GO and watch it in French.

Bars: There will be no shortage offering the game live.

Black and grey markets:

Unauthorized streams will no doubt be aplenty, as will methods to get around the measures CBS has to block online streamers from Canada.

U. S. commercials? They’re all being posted to YouTube.
