CIMT-TV is a television station. It is the TVA affiliate in Rivière-du-Loup, Quebec.

The station was launched on September 17, 1978.

The station is part of a rare "triple-stick", owned by Télé Inter-Rives, which also owns Radio-Canada affiliate CKRT and TQS affiliate CFTF.

In addition to several smaller Quebec communities, CIMT also has a rebroadcast transmitter in Edmundston, New Brunswick. CIMT is carried on cable in most anglophone areas of New Brunswick.

As well, like its sister stations CKRT and CFTF, CIMT has a second low-power transmitter (CIMT-TV-6) serving Rivière-du-Loup, as the topography of the area leads to poor reception of the main signal in some parts of the city. CIMT's main signal is on channel 9, while its second transmitter in Rivière-du-Loup airs on channel 6.
