Alliance Atlantis

Alliance Atlantis is a Toronto-based media company. It distributes American- and Canadian-made films both in Canada and the United Kingdom.


It has been known to fund projects regarded as too controversial by US companies, such as Bowling for Columbine ; it was Canadian distributor of Fahrenheit 9-11.[1] (http://www.cbc.ca/story/arts/national/2004/06/09/Arts/moorecda040609.html) The company purchased the now defunct Salter Street Films which produced a number of television shows for both the Canadian and international market such as This Hour Has 22 Minutes.


It also owns a number of Canadian cable and digital television channels such as History Television, and Showcase, along with BBC Canada and BBC Kids. In some cities the company also owns movie theaters.


Alliance Atlantis produces the hit U.S. series CSI: Crime Scene Investigation.
