I will go check the ones not working for you, but - the one you provided sounds like fun! Their Trivia contest begins this Friday! Yikes!
When I lost my house I didn't start my Direct TV subscription back up at the new place. I had been getting annoyed with them; it seemed like every six months their rates went up. For a while i watched things on You Tube and other free places, then I signed up for YouTube TV to watch the winter Olympics for $30 per month. I was happy with them for a year or so, then they started raising prices a little at a time. When it was bordering on $50 I canceled and went back to the free ones. I'm not sure if any of these will work in Canada, but I bet Moo can get them:
Pluto TV is completely free with tons of channels. I get some national news, and most of their programming is quite a bit of re-runs of classics and older series, movies, some reality and talk shows, Dr Who, but its a good to put on while I'm doing dishes or whatever like I used to do with other sorts of TV. It plays on all sorts of devices.
https://www.pluto.tvelectricnow is a site that plays a lot of Dean Devlin things - Librarians, Almost Paradise, Leverage, movies, tons more. Again, free, plays on all sorts of devices.

IMDb TV free, tons of things (mostly movies). At first it was super easy to get into from the IMDb pages, but lately its like they want to do ads a lot before you get where you want to be. They also have some of my favourite series-that-aren't-on-regular-tv-right-now.
https://www.imdb.com/feature/genre/WatchSeriesStream.com I wanted to watch Murdoch Mysteries and they have it, plus a lot of other good stuff.
and Peacock, but it probably is only USA because its a subsidiary of the US's NBC. I don't really recommend it exactly because part of it is a paid subscription and they do a a sneaky thing, show a couple episodes of some show, then have the rest on the paid part. They do have some whole current TV series though (I've been watching Days of Our Lives since 1970 and they have it on the free side - at least so far...).
There are others available, and some others that have a reasonable fee ($5 or $10 per month), the above are the ones I'm using right now, though.
There are a couple things I miss by using the free services instead of paid ones (like MSNBC and CNN, but pieces of each night's programming is on YouTube - its a good place to search for shows - regular YouTube - not YouTube TV - has a lot of stuff if you can figure out how it is listed and find it), however, -!-, I don't miss the costs going up all the time, paying through the nose (I am not going to pay $80 or more for something that, while I might get some enjoyment from it, doesn't have much substance), with crummy customer service.
