Channel Request: CTV channel in Canada

Hi there, I am in Canada and looking for the CTV channels. When I search for it, I get three bizarre, little known channel options. CTV is the largest watched private network in Canada, not sure why none of the various versions are available. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

Steve

    The channel apps for Roku are created and provided by the channels themselves.  The CTV website lists several devices they have apps for but Roku is not one of them.

    Let them know you'd like to view their service via Roku.

        I as well am most surprised and disappointed that CTV is missing on Roku especially since Global's app is such **bleep** I cant even sign in to it. So far Global is just streaming live news but all other content needs my sign in. I still have a listed cable provider and yet the sign in will not authenticate. POOR.

      you can download global tv in canada....and log in if you have paid cable to watch all programs, via Settings.   you can download CTV News -- no logo shown -- with white background on tile.

        Thanks S1G2M - I have a firestick but it doesn’t help when I want to use my Roku or any of the other Roku users who would like the CTV app on their device. Never did hear back from the powers that be at CTV about making it accessible on Roku!

      Hi Christine1

      Thanks for the post.

      Channels are managed by the developer themselves. We suggest reaching out to CTV channel support directly to let them know you want their streams on Roku. We'll also make certain that your channel request will be passed over to our team. You can always check our blog at https://www.roku.com/blog for future announcements and updates. 

      All the best,
      Kariza
