CJCH-TV is a Canadian television station, broadcasting in the Halifax Regional Municipality, Nova Scotia. It is an affiliate of CTV Television Network.
It is the flagship of the CTV Atlantic (ATV) regional system in the Canadian Maritimes, producing all of the system's programming except for some commercials and local news inserts on the other stations.
CJCH-TV first went on the air on January 1, 1961 as an independent station, and it became one of the original CTV stations when the network began operations on October 1 that year. It is no longer associated with radio station CJCH-AM, although they were previously co-owned by CHUM Limited.
