History

Atlantic Digital Networks received

Category B-exemption from the Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission (CRTC) for a television service called "Atlantic Cartoon" in 2014.[1] The channel, now known as Toon-A-Vision, launched on Eastlink cable systems throughout Canada in high definition on June 19, 2018.[2] It was developed in conjunction with Huminah Huminah Animation.[3] On July 15, 2019, Atlantic Digital Networks requested the CRTC transfer the channel to a full license after surpassing the commission's subscriber threshold.[4] Its license was approved on September 1, 2020.[5]

The channel was added to Bell Satellite TV and Bell Fibe on December 5, 2019.[6] Cogeco launched the channel on its platforms on April 22, 2020.[7] The channel is expected to be launched on Shaw Direct in 2022.[citation needed]
