just to clarify to none Canadians. that only happens on cable. And it is not the adds that are replaced but the whole show. So if Global has the same show as NBC playing at the same time, then your cable provider must show Global's broadcasting instead of NBC's. This way you see the Canadian adds and the broadcaster can ask more for them (since you cannot get away from the ad by watching the US broadcast).

This rule does not bother me. But I sure hate some of the CRTC's decisions.

As for the logos. The other day I switched to ABC, and they had a full color opaque logo on the screen, I found it very distracting and annoying. I don't mind if they go back to the small translucent icons, (like a watermark) but this was ridiculous.
