How does sports TV broadcasting work in Canada?

Post Body

I'm from Australia and I have been looking into streaming sport TV packages in Canada and I am super confused. In Oz, someone buys the exclusive rights to a sport and that is more-or-less the only place you can find it. It seems in Canada multiple services can hold the rights at the same time. I was wondering if anyone could explain how you work out which services show which sports, and - I guess - what is considered to be the main ones?

Do services license channels - not sports - and then have the ability to broadcast anything on that channel? For example ESPN or beIN Sports. Or is it only some things from that channel?

Thank you
