I’d like to report that the Euronews Français channel does not work at all. It hasn’t been working for at least two months, that when I signed up my Plex lifetime license.
You already did
The channel is not supposed to be available in Canada.
That was a misconfiguration on plex’s side which will be rectified.
And no, unfortunately the availability of a stream on the channel owner’s website is no indication that Plex is allowed to make the stream available via their systems, without any restriction.
Unfortunately I can only confirm my initial response.
Euronews Français is not supposed to be available in CA.
This is nothing that Plex Inc. is free to decide. It is contractually fixed.
Are you confirming the Euronews in all other languages are supposed to be available in Canada, except the one in French?
If so, how could we address this?
It cannot be adressed. As already explained above.
As for the “why”: only the owner of the content would know for certain. Plex is not the owner.
If I had to guess, I’d say they have already another legel or contractual obligation to not make it available in Canada. Probably because a third party already has an exclusive contract for the content in that geographic region.
