The Canadian Film Channel
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Canadian Film Channel was a proposed English language Canadian premium television service, one of four that was considered at a CRTC public hearing on October 24, 2005. [1]
It proposed to exhibit 100% Canadian content and be funded entirely by the operators of the existing general-interest pay services, The Movie Network and Movie Central, in an amount equal to 12.9% of these services' gross revenues, to be required by condition of licence. Neither TMN nor Movie Central indicated approval for such a use of its revenues.
On May 18, 2006, it was announced that the Canadian Film Channel application was rejected, as were applications from BOOMTV and Spotlight Television. The only application approved was one from Allarco Entertainment. [2]
