Overview
CTV News Channel is a Canadian English-language national news service based in Toronto, Ontario. Operated by Bell Media as part of CTV News, it is a 24-hour all-news channel covering developments in Canada and abroad for audiences across the country.
The channel's schedule is built around continuously updated news, breaking stories, interviews, analysis, and coverage of political and public affairs. Reporting draws on CTV News operations across Canada as well as its national and international news resources, allowing the service to combine countrywide coverage with reporting connected to local and regional newsrooms.
The service was originally licensed by the CRTC in 1996 as a national headline news service. Its early format emphasized a continuously updated news wheel, but the CRTC removed that specific requirement in 2005, allowing greater use of analysis and interpretation. Today, CTV News Channel is classified by the CRTC as an English-language discretionary news service. Within Canada's television landscape, it functions as CTV News's dedicated national channel for ongoing news coverage, political reporting, interviews, and analysis.
