× The Beatles, ‘Saved by the Bell’ and Christmas programming commences: Here’s what’s streaming for Canadians this week
This week, Canadians are running free of international and government-imposed border restrictions. Prime Minister Justin Trudeau announced that the seasonal restrictions, which restrict Canadians’ ability to board international flights, were lifted. However, restrictions on Canadians traveling to the U.S. remain.
It’s also showtime on Netflix Canada as The Beatles’ “The Ed Sullivan Show” debuts and Christmas specials arrive on Netflix, CBC and Shaw TV.
