CBC Television once operated CBVE-TV, a rebroadcaster of Montreal's CBMT serving Quebec City. In 1997, it took over the old channel 5 position previously occupied by longtime private affiliate CKMI-TV when the latter station switched to Global and moved to channel 20. CBVE-TV would relocate to channel 11 in 2011, after CBVT had shut down its analogue transmitter. However, CBVE-TV was shut down in 2012 along with all CBC-operated rebroadcasters. However, few anglophones lost access to CBC Television programming due to the wide availability of cable and satellite in the city.
Montreal's CFCF-DT (CTV) is piped in via cable. American television stations are piped in from the Burlington, Vermont/Plattsburgh, New York market.
