the TV can go

Plugged-in Canadians value Internet over other media - The Globe and Mail
A survey of plugged-in Canadians suggests most value their Internet access over their TV, cellphone and newspaper subscriptions.

And if they could keep just one service, they'd stay online.

The Canadian Media Research Consortium, based out of the University of British Columbia, commissioned the online survey and found 42 per cent of respondents said the Internet would be the last service they'd cut. Twenty four per cent said they'd keep their cable TV and 17 per cent each would keep their cellphone service or newspaper subscription.
