CFKS-DT

The station went to air on September 7, 1986. It was originally launched by Cogeco as an independently owned affiliate of TQS, which was then owned by Jean Pouliot. It became an owned-and-operated station of the network in 2001 when Cogeco became the network's primary owner. The station was part of V's takeover by Remstar. Since the rebranding of the TQS network on August 31, 2009, CFKS has dropped all non-network programming and became a de facto semi-satellite of Montreal owned-and-operated station CFJP-TV. ==Former local programming==

V later filed regarding the same proceeding that it was in talks with Télé-Québec to partner up in order to reduce the cost of installing transmitters. ==References==
