All television satellite services have a "footprint" which defines the area of land covered by the transmission. The Freesat footprint covers the whole of the UK and it spills outside the geographic area. As the edge of the footprint is passed, the signal becomes progressively weaker until reception becomes impossible.

Canada is quite a distance from the UK so it is very unlikely that there will be any worthwhile signal. However, with a large dish and a good quality LNB, it might just be possible to get a signal in the far Easterly parts of Canada. The only way to find out is to try it, with the help of a good satellite installer and see what happens.

All Freesat broadcasts are in 50Hz format so it is important to ensure that a television will accept 50Hz signals. (North American television uses 60Hz)
