"We are proud to be the #1 choice for satellite radio in CANADA. It has been an incredible first year, and we look forward to continuing a tradition of delivering the very best satellite radio products and programming available in CANADA."
"SIRIUS CANADA's incredible progress in less than 12 months of operating is testament to the quality of SIRIUS' programming and reinforces the country's interest and excitement in satellite radio as an entertainment medium," added U.S. SIRIUS CEO MEL KARMAZIN. "As we grow our business and extend programming options across NORTH AMERICA, we are confident SIRIUS CANADA will continue to connect with Canadians as the country's preferred satellite radio service and build off the tremendous success it has achieved during its first year."
