The Elite Nationals are this coming weekend in Toronto. Originally I had heard that the event (or parts of it) were to be televised. Now it appears that CBC hasn't made a firm committment - apparently they are on-again off-again about it. I have contacted CBC about the event, saying that I would drop everything to be able to watch it.
Might I suggest that other Canadians (and those in USA who can get the CBC feed) contact CBC to request that at least some of the event be televised. It might be too late already but if we don't try, nothing will happen.
Try the following email address, or contact your local station.
