Skinemax HD is a Canadian English language Category B specialty channel that broadcasts adult entertainment material entirely in high definition (HD), primarily in the form of pornographic films. The channel is owned by Fifth Dimension Properties Inc, a company wholly owned by Stuart Duncan, majority owner of Ten Broadcasting.

History

In October 2012, Fifth Dimension Properties Inc. was granted approval by the Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission (CRTC) to launch "Skinemax TV", a channel described as "a national, English-language specialty Category B service devoted to adult entertainment. The service will feature programming reflecting the latest trends in themes and styles of adult programming."[1]

The channel launched in late June 2013 on Shaw Direct, marking the first Canadian pornographic television channel to launch in HD.
