TV Channel Overview
Citytv is a Canadian English-language commercial television network operated
by Rogers Sports & Media. The network traces its roots to Toronto,
Ontario, where the original Citytv station began broadcasting in 1972.
From that local beginning, Citytv developed into a network serving several
major Canadian markets.
Its general-interest schedule is centered on entertainment, including drama, comedy, reality and competition formats, Canadian productions, and morning programming. News and local information are provided through CityNews, with regional newsrooms producing coverage tailored to individual cities and surrounding communities. This local reporting complements programming shared across the network.
Rogers acquired the Citytv stations in 2007, further integrating the network into its television operations. Today, Citytv stations serve markets including Toronto, Vancouver, Calgary, Edmonton, Winnipeg, and Montreal. The network's combination of nationally scheduled entertainment and locally produced news reflects its evolution from a single Toronto station into a broader commercial television network with a continuing focus on urban and regional audiences across Canada.
