ICI Television Live Stream

ICI Télévision is an independent multicultural station based in Montreal, Quebec, and identified over the air as CFHD-DT on virtual channel 47. Its programming serves 18 communities with shows in 15 languages, as well as French and English. The station describes its format as cultural, informative, musical and entertainment programming, and confirms that an HD live stream is available online around the clock.

Programs made for Montreal’s communities

ICI’s schedule includes talk, food and community magazines produced for different language groups. Agora discusses arts, literature, politics and social-cultural issues in the French-speaking community. Italian-language programs include Appuntamento con Nick & Silvana and the cooking show Fatto in Casa MTL. Persian program AVA TV explores Iranian culture and traditions, while Hay Horizon features people and organizations in Montreal’s Armenian community.

Culture, food and local affairs

Other examples include Entre Nous, a French-language talk show with guests, and Ukrainian Wave, which covers events and community news in Quebec. Télé-ritmo V presents Latin music, dance, events and food. These programs demonstrate the station’s range of subjects and languages without relying on a single national perspective.

Broadcasting and mission

The CRTC approved ICI’s licence in December 2012. Its stated mission is to showcase Quebec’s ethnocultural communities and provide information in viewers’ first languages. In addition to terrestrial service on virtual channel 47.1, ICI is distributed by cable and satellite providers in Quebec. This mix of local cultural programming and multilingual access defines the station’s place in Montreal television.
