Warsaw continued, "We are delighted to be the first Catholic programmer to be included in a U.S. satellite radio service, and now the first on a Canadian satellite radio service. This new digital technology enables Canadians to have full access to EWTN’s radio programming, the only 100% Catholic radio channel available in the country."
