CKSH-TV is a television station in Sherbrooke, Quebec, Canada. It is an owned-and-operated station of the Radio-Canada network.
The station first aired on September 19, 1974. As a privately owned station, CKSH basically functioned as a semi-satellite of CBFT in Montreal due to not having alternative non-network sources of programming available. The station had been owned directly by Cogeco prior to the latter's majority acquisition of TQS, to which Cogeco contributed its existing local stations. Radio-Canad] took editorial control of the station's news programming in 2002, although it currently shares a studio with former TQS sister station CFKS-TV.
CKSH is seen on cable television systems throughout New England, serving the French American community. Its initial placement on the cable television system of Lowell, Massachusetts was the result of a long fight by leaders of the community in that city. It remains on the Comcast system on Channel 98. It serves as a vital link to the Québécois culture in these communities.
In September 2007, Radio-Canada announced that it would not renew its affiliation agreement with its three Cogeco-owned affiliates — CKSH, CKTM in Trois-Rivières and CKTV in Saguenay — after their current agreement expires in August 2008. An application to directly acquire the station was filed by the CBC on April 25, 2008, concurrently with Cogeco's proposed sale of TQS to Remstar Corporation.[1] The transaction was approved by the CRTC on June 26, 2008.[2]
