Streaming in Canada on Crave, Netflix, Paramount+ and Prime Video [Aug. 17-23]

Wondering what to watch on streaming?

Every week, MobileSyrup outlines some of the most notable new movies and TV shows. We typically focus on new content from Amazon’s Prime Video, Crave, Disney+ and Netflix, but other services like Apple TV+ and Paramount+ will be mentioned when relevant.
