Not strictly true. Most of them are encrypted, but I can tune in about 
40 or so of the time shifted 'regional' (CBC, Global, City, CTV, etc 
from the East and West coast) channels through QAM. It does help with 
scheduling as many shows are repeated at numerous different times than 
EST primetime.
