Streaming in Canada on Apple TV+, CBC Gem, Crave, Netflix and Prime Video [Jan. 5-11]

Wondering what to watch to stream?

Every week MobileSyrup covers some of the most notable new films and TV shows. We typically focus on new content from Amazon Prime Video, Crave, Disney+ and Netflix, but other services such as Apple TV+ and Paramount+ will be mentioned when appropriate. Premium video on demand (PVOD) platforms are also fair game as films continue to release early on digital.

Finally, we'll highlight shows or movies produced by Canadian companies, featuring famous Canadian actors or crew, and/or filmed in Canada.
