Can we stream it in Canada?

It seems that "Corus Entertainment" doesn't allow us to stream the Peacock app, including the "free content"

I don't see how "Corus" is involved, but my guess is that your (and my) "Canadian" IP-address has been determined to be "outside" of the region (the USA) where Peacock is licensed to distribute the content.

Same reason they don’t carry Disney TV app  and Apple TV app. Marketing and licensing.

Peacock doesn’t have a license in Canada, it has nothing to do with Shaw or any other Canadian provider. You can get a vpn and subscribe directly.

@Kim54 --  I didn’t realize you can get an app.

If your device that runs that app has an IP-address determined to be within Canada, Peacock will block your device.  As the Other Person stated, using VPN to show a USA-based IP-address is what should work.
