Canada
ESPN owns a minority interest in the sports network TSN alongside its majority owner Bell Media: in 2011, the company converted three of its stations to a new sports radio network known as TSN Radio. Much like its television counterpart, all three TSN Radio stations also carry programs from ESPN Radio (such as select event coverage, along with overnight and weekend programming).
