It's a specialty service, so there's no broadcast channel. Therefore, it would depend on who your provider is (i.e., Bell-TV, Rogers, Star Choice, etc.) As of now though, I haven't seen anything about any of the companies picking up this channnel, nor do they have to based on its licensing (although, it's a shoe-in that Rogers will be carrying it and likely assigning it a somewhat low number).^^^ Any word on what channel the 24-hour Citynews Channel will be on?
I hate Toronto Life and this extension of it. The whole, lets tame-the-overly-busyness-of-our-death-by-ads-aesthetic-with-a-gloomy-plastic-grey-Lego-backdrop doesn't work for me.
Tourism-wise, it's the most important spot in the city, and therefore it would have been nice if we brought something more to it (instead of turning it into a monstrosity-bordered bus shelter).
I'm with you on the CityTV HQ (and of course TLS), it's a marginal improvement from what it was but I expected much more from Rogers (ya, I know, I know it's not complete...). It sure is a step down from 299 Queen West (CHUM-City Building).

Please ask your sources why the exterior work is taking so long. How can the station launch if the exterior work is incomplete? What is the timeline of completing the exterior?
The building itself has room for expansion, the two buildings and parking lot to the south can be knock down and the torch can expanded into that space for more offices and maybe a sound stage?
