literally every Canadian will be GLUED to their TV - hockey Fan or not.

According to this
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of...ion_broadcasts the highest we have had is for Super Bowl 16 which was watched by 49.1% of households and 73% of the population.
On a funny side note that page also says the highest rated TV show in Germany is Colombo. . . who would have thought.
