CHUM Limited was a media company based in Toronto, Ontario, Canada from 1945-2007. Immediately prior to its acquisition, it held full or joint control of two Canadian television systems — Citytv and A-Channel (incorporating NewNet) — comprising 11 local stations, and one CBC Television (Canadian Broadcasting Corporation) affiliate, one provincial educational channel, and 20 branded specialty television channels, most notably MuchMusic and its various spinoffs. In addition, CHUM controlled 33 radio stations across Canada. At various points in its history, CHUM owned other radio stations and ATV/Atlantic Satellite Network in Atlantic Canada.

In July 2006, CHUM announced it was to be taken over by Bell Globemedia (now renamed CTVglobemedia), owner of the CTV Television Network. Regulatory approval was conditional on the sale of CHUM's five Citytv stations to Rogers Communications.

History

CHUM-City Building, the headquarters of CHUM Limited. It is currently referred to as the MuchMusic World Headquarters, to avoid references to CHUM and Citytv after the CTVglobemedia takeover.

CHUM began in 1945 with a single AM radio station in Toronto. In 1954 it was purchased by Allan Waters, and today several of his children stand on the board of directors of the company. In 1967 Waters founded CHUM Limited to control his growing number of media properties.

Although CHUM's radio holdings tend to retain traditional formats, their television stations reflected the avant garde philosophy of former senior executive Moses Znaimer, who turned his hip, local style of television broadcasting into an image as perhaps Canada's most flamboyantly visible media titan in the 1980s and 1990s. (Znaimer retired from active management at CHUM in 2003, and continued to work on projects with the company.) Moses Znaimer (born 1942) is the founder and was the driving creative force behind Torontos first independent television station, Citytv. ...

On December 1, 2004, CHUM purchased Craig Media Inc., which owned five local TV stations, mainly in the Prairies, and three digital specialty services, for $265 million. While Craig's three largest stations were integrated into Citytv, Craig's Toronto station CKXT-TV (then branded "Toronto 1", now "Sun TV") was sold to Quebecor. is the 335th day of the year (336th in leap years) in the Gregorian calendar. ... shelby was here 2004 (MMIV) was a leap year starting on Thursday of the Gregorian calendar. ...

CHUM Limited merged into CTVglobemedia

Canadian media company Bell Globemedia to acquire rival CHUM

On July 12, 2006, CHUM announced that it had agreed to a takeover by Bell Globemedia, now renamed CTVglobemedia (here abbreviated "CTV" for brevity), in a transaction valuing CHUM at $1.7 billion CAD. The takeover requires approval from two regulatory bodies, the Competition Bureau, which approved the transaction on March 2[1], and the Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission (CRTC), which held a public hearing beginning April 30, 2007 in Gatineau.[2] Image File history File links WikiNews-Logo. ...

CTVgm's takeover bid was completed on October 30, although CHUM was immediately in a blind trust under lawyer John McKellar. [3] A Blind trust is a trust in which the executors or those who have been given power of attorney have full discretion over the assets, and the trust beneficiaries have no knowledge of the holdings of the trust. ...


Few details are known about CTV's specific plans for the company following approval. What is known is as follows:

  • In its initial announcement, CTV said it would attempt to maintain all five Citytv stations, and operate them as a separate, youth-oriented system with its current lineup of stations. This is potentially with the addition of the CTV-owned Atlantic Satellite Network, which airs Citytv programming in Atlantic Canada, although there has been no specific statement to that effect.
    • The acquisition of Citytv would have required an exemption from the CRTC's ownership policy (one station per market per language per owner - Public Notice CRTC 1999-97 at 17), which has never been officially revoked, even though both CHUM (with Citytv and A-Channel/Access) and CanWest (with Global and CH) have secured exemptions in many large markets. Even so, such large-market exemptions have almost never applied to stations licensed to the same city.
  • The company insisted that the Citytv stations' news operations would remain separate from those of the CTV network, although, as noted below, most Citytv newscasts outside Toronto have already been cancelled ahead of the merger.
  • CTV acknowledged following the merger announcement that it would have to sell some assets to satisfy CRTC concerns. In early April 2007, it announced it would sell the A-Channel stations, the ACCESS educational channel in Alberta, CKX-TV Brandon, CLT, and SexTV: The Channel to Rogers Communications; as well as sell CHUM's 50% interest in MusiquePlus and MusiMax to Astral Media. Both sales were contingent on approval of CTV's purchase, but would have be considered separately by the CRTC at a later date. Rogers planned to develop A-Channel as a "third-tier" network separate from its multicultural OMNI stations. CFMT, CJMT, and the A-Channel stations would have constituted a triplestick in southern Ontario, however this might have been permitted as the two OMNI stations carry predominately non-English programming, and the ownership policy noted above restricts against holding multiple stations in the same language. [1]
  • Per the CRTC application for the CTV/CHUM merger, negotiations are also underway to sell CTV's 33.34% interest in OLN; the most likely purchaser is the other Canadian partner in OLN, Rogers Communications.
  • In a filing on May 7, 2007, following the public hearing, CTV said it "would agree to sell CHMI-TV Winnipeg if the Commission determined this was in the public interest". It also said it would be prepared to sell CKEM Edmonton and CKAL Calgary should CanWest Global's pending re-application to add additional transmitters to CHCA-TV Red Deer be denied, in which case CTV would instead apply to purchase ACCESS.[4]
  • Except as noted above, CTV plans to keep all the specialty channel and radio assets, which it views as "complementary" to its existing properties. This would give CTV ownership (in whole or part) of nearly 40 specialty channels. The only hurdles in terms of direct competition may be the merged company's ownership of two all-news channels, CTV Newsnet and Toronto's CP24, as well as both the MuchMusic channels and MTV Canada. CTV is arguing that MTV is not a direct competitor to MuchMusic, much as the previous MTV Canada (now Razer) was found not to be competing with MuchMusic following the CHUM/Craig merger. The branding of one or both services might be changed, depending on the nature of CTV's current relationship with MTV Networks.

Immediately following the announcement, CHUM separately announced 281 layoffs, primarily at its local stations in western Canada; local newscasts (other than Breakfast Television and the Noon News in Calgary and Edmonton) at all Citytv stations in the region were immediately pulled. CHUM claims the layoffs were part of an ongoing process to streamline its operations and not directly related to the takeover.

On June 8, 2007, the CRTC approved the CTV takeover of CHUM. However, the CRTC made the deal conditional on CTV divesting itself of Citytv rather than A-Channel. This consequently voided the Rogers deal; on June 11, 2007, Rogers announced that it has agreed to buy the Citytv stations. CTV said it would keep all other assets, except CHUM's interest in MusiquePlus/MusiMax, and potentially CKX-TV and CLT.
