Classic and Ultimate TV

MTS Ultimate TV is an IPTV service distributed on MTS phone lines. This service, which was first available only in portions of Winnipeg, offers over 200 television channels, plus radio stations, and interactive features.[2] Ultimate TV is available in Brandon, Carberry, Dauphin, Killarney, Minnedosa, Neepawa, Oakbank, Portage la Prairie, Selkirk, Steinbach, The Pas, Thompson, and Winnipeg. MTS Classic TV was the company's legacy digital television service; it was discontinued in 2015 due to its incompatibility with the mandatory National Public Alert System.[3][4]

MTS Ultimate TV also features Winnipeg On Demand, a lineup of locally produced programming. The Winnipeg On Demand library includes programs like Call To Arms: The Story of the Royal Albert, Rags to Richlu, and Live at the West End.[5]
