CHTO is a Canadian radio station, broadcasting at 1690 AM in Toronto, Ontario. The station airs a multicultural programming format. It is owned by Canadian Hellenic Toronto Radio Inc., which is run by Vassiliki Maniatakos, wife of Peter Maniatakos who owns Odyssey Television Network. The station was initially going to launch by the end of 2006, but this was pushed back due to technical problems. It has been on the air since September 2007.
CHTO's programming is predominantly Greek although it also airs some Armenian, Romanian, Serbian, Bulgarian and English programming as well.
