Which channels have fast forward?

I recently switched from Shaw to Telus and was suprised that I can no longer fast forward on many channels 😖.  On Shaw I could fast forward on all channels.  Is there a list of Telus channels where fast forwarding is allowed?

    You can’t fast forward on live TV.

    Some programs (not channels) allow you to rewind to the start of the show, but if you choose this option you can’t fast forward, only pause and play.

    Most On Demand shows allow fast forward, as does any recorded show.

    If you pause and resume, or rewind,  a live show, you can fast forward until you reach the live point.

      Most broadcasters restrict the ability to fast forward/skip if you restart or rewind past a certain point. It works on Crave for instance but not on TSN or Sportsnet.
