Unable to Rewind a Scene on Live TV

I've been around

Why can't I rewind a scene of a tv show on live tv? Blue Sky with Shaw does it and so does Bell Fibe.

It works for me.  However, keep in mind that you can only rewind whatever content that the set-top box has stored in-memory; that's about 25 minutes.  Once you rewind back that far, you cannot go back any farther.  (It's not like Fibe TV, where restart automatically kicks in when you rewind.)  However, with Ignite TV, you can invoke Restart to watch a show from the beginning, if the option is available for that program.  If you are recording the show that you are watching, you can also play the recording that is still in progress, and that will let you rewind or fast-forward through whatever content has been recorded so far.
