One of the things I do at my job is to monitor signals we send to the Canadian version of DirectTV. The interesting bit is that the History Channel Canada does not show this American bias but tends to be biased towards Canadian/British subjects. Quite a bit of coverage is devoted to the British civil wars. Very rarely is there anything WWII related and there is almost never American biased shows. I wonder if History channel is in Europe and if the programming is more European in its bias.
