Where to Watch SkyMed Season 3: Release Date & Stream

The first season of the ‘SkyMed’ series premiered back in 2022, and season 3 is almost here. Fans have been waiting for more dangerous missions with the medical responders from the northern Canada SkyMed crew house since the last episode aired in early 2024. In this guide, we’ll share how and where to watch ‘SkyMed’ season 3 and the first two seasons completely free.

As fans expected, Natasha Calis, Thomas Elms, Sydney Kuhne and Mercedes Morris are just some of the cast members returning for season 3, and there are some fresh faces to shake things up. Plus, Aaron Ashmore has been promoted to a series regular for season 3.  

If you want in on more high stakes medical rescues in flying air ambulances, then season 3 started Jan. 5 on CBC television in Canada. We’ve included how-to steps for accessing it for free, but if you’re not in Canada, you’ll need to use a top VPN — we recommend NordVPN.

SkyMed Season 3 Release Date & Time: USA & Abroad

The third season began Sunday, January 5 on the CBC television channel and its free online streaming service, CBC Gem, at 9:00 p.m. local time. In other countries, including the U.S., you can watch exclusively on Paramount+, though we don’t yet have an official release date for season 3 on the platform.

Is SkyMed on Netflix?

No, we didn’t find ‘SkyMed’ in any Netflix library.

Checking different Netflix regions for the content you want is easy when you have a VPN to help.

The Best VPNs to Stream SkyMed Online

If you need a VPN to watch ‘SkyMed’ for free on CBC Canada — or another service if you’re not in the correct country — you need a top streaming VPN. Don’t just choose any VPN, though. Make sure it can access streaming services and has fast speeds, otherwise, you’ll be left disappointed. We’ve got three recommendations for you below, all of which have Canadian servers.

1. NordVPN — It has excellent unblocking ability and the fastest speeds. There are thousands of servers, all nicely located on an interactive map. NordVPN’s two-year plan offers the best value and there’s a 30-day money-back guarantee. Read our NordVPN review to learn more.
2. Surfshark — This VPN offers a ton of features in an easy-to-use app. It’s fast, can access streaming services and also offers unlimited simultaneous connections. Like NordVPN, the two-year plan is the cheapest and there’s a 30-day money-back guarantee. Read our Surfshark review for more details.
3. ExpressVPN — It has excellent speeds and unblocking ability. Plus, its app is the easiest to use on this list. However, it’s quite pricey, even with the discount on the longest plan. There’s a 30-day money-back guarantee, though, and our ExpressVPN review explains why it’s worth the cost.

There aren’t many free VPNs we recommend, but PrivadoVPN does top our list. It has free servers in 10 countries, including Canada for accessing CBC Gem, and it comes with unlimited data. However, your speeds are capped after the first 10GB. This is renewed each month, though, and it’ll get you into streaming services easily. You can read more in our PrivadoVPN review. 

SkyMed Season 3 Cast, Characters & Story (No Spoilers)

‘SkyMed’ follows a group of young medics working in a remote Northern Canada air ambulance service. The tight-knit SkyMed team includes pilots flying air ambulances in the remote skies and nurses tending to each shocking medical emergency. The series is filled with drama, romance, and more and more dangerous missions. Season 3 will continue from where the season 2 finale ended.

Julie Puckrin is the series creator and executive producer. Inspiration for the show came from her sister and brother-in-law who are a nurse and pilot respectively within the air ambulance service. The show’s high-stakes missions are a good representation of the mounting pressure on nurses and pilots within air ambulance settings. Production took place in northern Manitoba and Ontario, Canada. 

Most of the cast from season 2 will return and Wheezer has been promoted to a series regular for the new season. There are a few newcomers too, including Anthony Grant (‘Star Trek: Discovery‘) as TJ and Nicola Correia-Damude (‘Law & Order Toronto: Criminal Intent’) as Marianne, who will also have recurring roles. Here’s the cast list for the upcoming season.
