hahaha don't think so, you just have to check the URL, and if its in msn.ca web, surely is from MSN and not from a "good hacker"

I had it too and I'm very very happy of it. I've been seeing the new version of the MSN Today site in a lot of languages for quite some time and Canada still had the old ugly theme. Microsoft just took this opporunity to do a partenaria with Bell so that they dont have to bother finding good sources for news and other stuff in Canada.
