Background

CFTO-DT, virtual channel 9 (VHF digital channel 8), is the flagship station of the CTV Television Network, licensed to Toronto, Ontario, Canada. Owned by the Bell Media subsidiary of BCE Inc., it is part of a twinstick with Barrie-based CTV 2 owned-and-operated station CKVR-DT, channel 3 (although the two stations maintain separate operations). CFTO-DT's studios are located at 9 Channel Nine Court in Agincourt, and its transmitter is located atop the CN Tower in Downtown Toronto. The station shares the Agincourt studio complex with CTV's headquarters, which includes studios for the network's news programming (CTV National News and the CTV News Channel), along with most of Bell Media's specialty channels.
