It is available to all Sirius subscribers in Canada and the United States.Until October 2007, the channel was known as Infoplus, and was a French language news station. The station was primarily an audio
simulcast of the CBC'sRéseau de l'information , with some additional programming sources. It is assumed that the channel was flipped to a French language sports talker, because the service had two French news/talk channels while having no French sports coverage.The CBC still provides a French language news service to Sirius subscribers on channel 94,
