It’s a rough day to be a sports fan—Rogers is raising the prices of its Sportsnet+ plans. Again.
First spotted on several subreddits (r/torontoraptors, r/Rogers, to name a few), Rogers sent an email to subscribers outlining the details of the price increase.
The email states, “We are committed to bringing you the best live sports streaming experience with the most premium content. To support these continued investments, the Premium annual plan fee for Sportsnet+ will be adjusted to $344.99 plus applicable taxes, starting with your first bill on or after September 22, 2026.”

A look at the Sportsnet+ price increases
These price increases should not come as a surprise — Rogers recently completed a $4.35 billion deal to acquire the rest of Maple Leaf Sports and Entertainment (MLSE), giving it ownership of several major sports teams including the NHL’s Toronto Maple Leafs, the AHL’s Toronto Marlies, the NBA’s Toronto Raptors, MLS’ Toronto FC, and the CFL’s Toronto Argonauts.
Moreover, Rogers recently shuttered several radio stations alongside gutting its customer service agents.
