Where to watch 'The Grand Tour' in Canada
What to WatchThe Grand Tour is the upcoming motoring TV show from Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond, and James May after their departure from Top Gear.
The show is being produced by Amazon Studios, and will premiere November 18th, 2016.
The Grand Tour will be released on Amazon Video, which unfortunately is not available in Canada. Amazon Video is included for Amazon Prime users in the United States and other areas, but Amazon Prime in Canada does not include access to Amazon Video.
Other Amazon shows have been picked up by Shomi and CraveTV. There is no word yet on if any such service in Canada will pick up the rights to The Grand Tour in Canada, though it seems unlikely. Shomi is shutting down at the end of this month, Netflix is a major competitor to Amazon and they have not partnered in the past, which only leaves CraveTV as a potential partner in Canada.
This post will be updated as information becomes available.
