Default XM Weather throughout Canada

One of the guys here has a 496 with XM and here on the east coast
(Prince Edward Island), there is no coverage.. once you get to
Fredricton (New Brunswick) you'll start to pick up some of the
data...then you'll have the data all the way to Toronto. So it is a
bit helpful. But you don't get the TAFS and METARS.

How far north can XM be reliably received from the air? Canada? Alaska?
(How for south also, for that matter...)

Hello,

Does anyone have any information when/if we're going to be able to get
our 496 units to recieve Canadian weather information?

Happy Holidays,
