A-Z Business Listings :



 
  • CBLFT

    CBLFT is the Radio-Canada television station providing French-language television in Toronto and most of Ontario, including the Western, Central and Northeastern regions. The station airs on analogue broadcasts on channel 25, and digital broadcasts on channel 24 in the Toronto area.

  • CBLT

    CBLT is a television station serving Toronto, Ontario and outlying regions and is an owned and operated station of the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation. It is the oldest television station in Ontario, and the second oldest in Canada after its SRC sister station CBFT in Montreal. It is also the flagship television station of the CBC Television network, and houses the studios for most of CBC's programs, news, and shares studios with CBC Newsworld.

  • CFMT-TV

    CFMT-TV, channel 47, is a television station based in Toronto, Ontario, Canada, with rebroadcasters in Ottawa and London. The station broadcasts multicultural programming targeting European and Latin American communities throughout southern Ontario. Part of the Omni Television group of stations owned by Rogers Media, it uses the on-air brand OMNI.1.

    Among non-ethnic residents of southern Ontario, CFMT is likely best known as home to various English-language syndicated talk shows and sitcom repeats, including The Simpsons, Friends, and Family Guy, airing nightly as counterprogramming to local newscasts and first-run primetime series on the major networks.

  • CFTO-TV

    CFTO-TV, channel 9, is a television station in Toronto, Ontario, Canada owned by CTVglobemedia. Currently branded as CTV Toronto, it is the flagship station of the CTV Television Network, and was one of the charter members of the network when it was launched in 1961. It broadcasts from the CN Tower with a power output of 316 kW, and operates a digital transmitter on channel 40 (PSIP 9.1). In addition, the station currently operates two auxiliary transmitters serving the Orillia and Peterborough areas, and is available on cable and satellite throughout southern Ontario.

    The station's studios are located at 9 Channel Nine Court (recently renamed "Dave Devall Way") in Agincourt, near the junction of Highway 401 and McCowan Road. CFTO now shares these premises with the network's headquarters, which includes studios for the network's news programming (Canada AM, CTV National News and the CTV News Channel), along with most of CTVglobemedia's specialty channels. CTV News has in fact been based at CFTO's studios for most of its history, dating to the days when the network was a cooperative (CFTO's parent company later acquired most of the other affiliates to become the present-day CTVglobemedia).

  • Fairchild TV

    Fairchild TV or FTV (Chinese: 新時代電視) is a Canadian Cantonese cable television specialty channel. It is co-owned by majority owner Fairchild Media Group (a subsidiary of the Fairchild Group) and Television Broadcast Limited which owns 20% of the business. Fairchild TV has studios in the Greater Toronto Area (Richmond Hill, Ontario) and Metro Vancouver (Richmond, British Columbia).

  • CIII-TV

    CIII-TV is a television station owned by Canwest that serves much of the population of the Canadian province of Ontario, featuring content localized for the city of Toronto. The station's main transmitter is licensed to Paris, a small town near Brantford, but its main studio is in Toronto. Most cable television systems in Ontario carry the station, normally on channel 3.

    Unlike most Global stations, CIII is normally branded as simply "Global", as opposed to "Global Ontario", unless the geographic identifier is necessary for disambiguation. By contrast, most Global stations now use their regional brands during their newscasts and in their bugs.

    CIII-TV can be heard at 87.7 MHz on FM radios in areas where the station is transmitting on VHF channel 6. The audio frequency for VHF-TV channel 6 is 87.75 MHz, and as such, most FM radios are able to tune it in.

  • CITY-TV

    CITY-TV is a television station based in Toronto, Ontario, Canada, owned and operated by Rogers Media. It is the flagship station of the Citytv television system.

    Broadcasting for the first time on September 28, 1972, CITY was best known for its unconventional approach to news and local programming, an approach that continues today and has carried over to the other stations in the Citytv system. (See Citytv for more on these practices.)

    Originally owned by Channel Seventy-Nine Ltd., a group which consisted of Phyllis Switzer, Moses Znaimer, Jerry Grafstein, Edgar Cowan and others, CITY was in debt by 1975. Multiple Access Ltd. (the owners of CFCF in Montreal, Quebec) purchased 45% of the station. Three years later, it sold its stake to CHUM Limited. CITY was purchased outright by CHUM in 1981 with the sale of Moses Znaimer's interest in the station. Znaimer remained with the station as an executive until 2003, when he retired from his management role but continued to work with the station on some production projects.

  • CJMT-TV

    CJMT-TV is a Canadian television station, which broadcasts multicultural programming in Toronto, Ontario. As one of the Omni Television stations owned by Rogers Media, it uses the on-air brand OMNI.2, and is a sister station to CFMT (OMNI.1).

    The J in its call sign has no particular meaning, except that it was an available call sign that maintained the MT (Multicultural Television) from CFMT. (CJMT was formerly the callsign of a now-defunct AM radio station out of Chicoutimi, Quebec).

    CJMT was launched on September 16, 2002 on channel 44, though it now broadcasts on channel 69. The station was licensed as part of the same process that approved SUN TV.

    Just like its sister station, OMNI.2 also broadcasts in London and Ottawa.

    In October 2007, Rogers announced that the Omni stations would move from the CFMT Building, their current home, to 35 Dundas Street East, the former Olympic Spirit building on Dundas Square in the summer of 2009. CFMT and CJMT will share the facility with its radio station CJCL and Rogers' newly-acquired television station Citytv. Originally the exact moving date was scheduled to take place on July 1, but Rogers has said that no official date has been set.

  • CKXT-TV

    CKXT-TV (known on air as SUN TV) is an independent broadcast television station in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. The station is currently owned by Groupe TVA and Sun Media, both divisions of Quebecor Media. It currently does not air the programming affiliated with any larger Canadian television network or system (including French-language sister network TVA).

    The station began broadcasting on September 19, 2003, on channel 52. The station also has a rebroadcast transmitter in Hamilton on channel 45. It also broadcasts in HDTV (ATSC standard) on channel 66 in Toronto and on channel 15 in Hamilton. The station was known as Toronto 1 until August 29, 2005.

    The station applied for rebroadcasters in Ottawa and London in 2007, in order to improve its reach across southern Ontario. The move would give the station coverage roughly equal to that of Citytv, OMNI.1 or OMNI.2. On September 14, 2007, the Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission (CRTC) approved CKXT's request, giving the station channel 26, digital 19 in London; and channel 54, digital 62 in Ottawa. SUN TV later applied to change its digital channel in Ottawa to 20; this was given approval on June 17, 2008 and began transmissions in September 2008. As of late December 2008 (exact date not known) CKXT was broadcasting in London in high definition on channel 19.1 and standard definition on channel 19.2.

  • Star Ray TV

    Star Ray TV is a community television station in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. The station, which broadcasts on channel 15 in Toronto's Beaches neighbourhood, was launched in 1997 when Jan Pachul, an amateur radio operator, applied to the Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission for licence to serve the community. When it was licensed as an experimental low-power station, it had the callsign VX9AMK.
