FX Canada is a Canadian English language Category B specialty channel. FX Canada is devoted primarily to scripted dramas and comedies and is based on the U.S. cable network FX.

The channel is a partnership between majority owner and managing partner, Rogers Media, and minority partner, FX Networks.

As part of the agreement between Rogers Media and FX Networks, any new original series produced for FX U.S. by its co-owned studios, FX Productions and Twentieth Century Fox Television, will air on FX Canada.

This means that while FX Canada airs most programming from FX U.S., it does not currently carry some FX series that pre-dated the channel including It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia, or new FX series produced by other studios such as Anger Management (produced by Lionsgate).

In February 2011, Rogers was granted approval from the Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission (CRTC) to launch a television channel called Highwire, described as "a national, English-language Category 2 specialty programming service devoted to the entire genre of action and adventure, including selections from crime fiction, epic and heroic drama."

Canada ( /ˈkænədə/) is a North American country consisting of ten provinces and three territories. Located in the northern part of the continent, it extends from the Atlantic Ocean in the east to the Pacific Ocean in the west, and northward into the Arctic Ocean. Spanning over 9,900,000 km² (3,800,000 sq mi), Canada is the world's second-largest country by total area, and its common border with the United States is the longest land border in the world.

The land that is now Canada has been inhabited for millennia by various Aboriginal peoples. Beginning in the late 15th century, British and French colonial expeditions explored, and later settled, along the region's Atlantic coast. France ceded nearly all of its colonies in North America in 1763 after the Seven Years' War. In 1867, with the union of three British North American colonies through Confederation, Canada was formed as a federal dominion of four provinces. This began an accretion of provinces and territories and a process of increasing autonomy; the Canada Act 1982 severed the vestiges of legal dependence on Britain.
