Télévision de Radio-Canada (also known as Radio-Canada Télévision, or simply as Radio-Canada) is the French language broadcast television network run by the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation. It is the French-lanuguage counterpart to co-owned CBC Television.
Radio-Canada is the only francophone television network to broadcast over-the-air in all provinces of Canada (another French-language network, TVA, is available via cable and satellite across Canada, but broadcasts over-the-air only in Québec). It airs mostly Canadian content (most of which is produced in Québec) with a few French-dubbed off-network American shows and movies. All shows airing on Radio-Canada are closed captioned.
Radio-Canada is time shifted for each Canadian time zone, except the Atlantic Time Zone which receives the Eastern feed instead, thereby airing one hour later in New Brunswick, Nova Scotia and Prince Edward Island.
