Satellite radio in Canada

Does anybody in have either Sirrus or xm ?
Was it a hassle? (do you need a fake US address like you do with satellite tv)
I noticed with xm you can activate online. Do they just need a credit card or do they ask for an addy?
Is Sirrus better than xm in Canada in terms of reception? I heard it was, but at 5 dollars US a month more than xmit would have to be a lot better. I heard xm doesnt work coast to coast. I am not an expert but usually satellite stuff either works or it doesnt.

Thank you

From what I know, I don't think that either XM or Sirius is available in Canada.
They have not applied for a license from The CRTC. If anyone has any more details on this I'm sure they will post it.
