Montreal cable and HDTV

In Montreal for the NHL All Star Game and I have noticed something odd
on Videotron cable.

For the US networks in analog they are picking up 3-5 and 22 out of
Burlington-Plattsburg but when you go to HD they are picking up WBZ,
WHDH and WXYZ Detroit (Detroit??)  PBS is WGBH and FOX is 44 analog
and HD is from Rochester.

I am wondering if they are having a problem getting DTV over the air
and will they just switch to bird feeds come next month?

That would be a huge advertising blow to the Vermont outlets.
