Teletoon (Canada)

Frequency: Cable
Country: Canada
Launched: September 08, 1997 (Monday)

Teletoon is a Canadian English language cable television specialty channel that specializes in animation programming, not limited by age. It has been known as Canada's answer to the American Cartoon Network, with which it shares several series. However, Teletoon is required to show a certain percentage of Canadian content. Teletoon is owned by Teletoon Canada Inc; a 50/50 partnership between Astral Media and Corus Entertainment. The name is a portmanteau of television and cartoon.

There are separate English and French language versions of the channel as well. The English channel operates two time shifted feeds, East (Eastern Time) and West (Pacific Time).

Teletoon has no apparent connection to the television channel in France of the same name.
