Corus Entertainment, owner of Nick and CN Canada, just bought rights to Disney programming. Rights to Disney was owned by Family Channel/DHX. Their contract will expire in late 2015

Corus lanuched Disney Channel Canada under the new Disney/Corus contract in September. All new episodes of Gravity Falls will be delayed for a week and air on said network.

Disney XD Canada is still owned by DHX under the Disney/DHX contract set to expire. Thus, Gravity Falls and most Disney programs has ceased to air since September. Gravity Falls won't return to DXD Canada until the channel relanuches under Corus in 1 January, where the Disney/DHX contract fully ends and the Disney/Corus contract goes in full effect. The existing DXD Canada will separate and relanuch as Family Charged.

Now, Family Channel doesn't own Disney rights anymore, so it's pretty obvious GF won't air on Charged or on Family itself. It isn't the end of the world. Well, I still really wouldn't want to wait until January 1st for new episodes

I'll reiterate, new episodes of Gravity Falls will air on Disney Channel Canada on the interim. The new DXD Canada under the Disney/Corus contract will launch 1 January; new episodes of Gravity Falls will move to their (implying the series finale past 2015).
