I called and emailed asking to bring it back. I hate not having it and it's "radio" so I and I believe the majority of listeners listen in their vehicles.
Anyone else upset about this? Hoping I can get a little rally of support going and bring it back.
Missing Stephanie Miller and in particular Thom Hartmann.

Right well, let's see, Insight is ok, but doesn't have Stephanie Miller,
Thom Hartmann, Michelangelo Signorile and others. I do a lot of driving
and these are programs I always listened to on a regular basis.
CNN, MSNBC are fine in a pinch for corporate news, but I much prefer
Progressive.
Perhaps you could move Joel Osteen, or The Catholic Channel. or the myriad
of religious programming. Take 1 away and put Progressive back.
Frankly I just don't understand why you would move a channel to online
only? It doesn't make any sense. I'm pretty sure the majority of
SiriusXM radio listeners listen in their vehicles.
Please bring it back...and dump oh, hey, how about Fox News, since they
can't get a license through the CRTC because they are liers on TV, so
why should we be subject to their propaganda?
Come on...do the right thing.
Bring Progressive back!

Thank you for writing to SIRIUSXM Canada regarding our programming. We
do apologize for any inconvenience this may have brought you. We
constantly strive to provide our subscribers with the best listening
experience possible and in order to do that, we have to make changes to
our lineup from time to time. We hope that you will continue to listen
to the channel online or through the SiriusXM app.

For more progressive talk, tune to SiriusXM Insight (channel 121) to
hear inspiring talk with a sense of humour from hosts like Bob Edwards
and Pete Dominick.

To hear the latest in American political talk, tune to POTUS (channel
124) for news from the White House & Capitol Hill from hosts like
Michael A. Smerconish, Julie Mason, Chuck Todd and more. For a
refreshing take on the Canadian election, tune into "Everything is
Political: Campaign 2015" with seasoned journalist Evan Solomon every
weekday from 6-7 pm EST, plus "The Arlene Bynon Show" covering the news
of the day from 4-6 pm EST every weekday. All on Canada Talks (channel
167).

In our effort to deliver the most exciting coast-to-coast music and
entertainment for your car and home, we are continuously considering
opportunities to update our music and entertainment lineup. This
includes adding new channels whenever possible, and, occasionally,
removing channels too. We're sorry for any inconvenience this may cause
but do hope you will enjoy SiriusXM Progress through our online
offering. Thank you for being a SiriusXM subscriber.

1. These days, probably more people listen on the phone app than in the car

When Sirius began, most people didn't have online access in the car.

Now they can listen with a phone app and a simple connector.

2. Sirius get suckier by the month.

There used to be three public radio stations. Now there is one.

Unfortunately, I signed up for a lifetime subscription. As Meyer Kahane said, Never Again.
