TV5 Unis

In 2013, TV5 Québec Canada applied with the CRTC for an 9.1 (1)(h) order, seeking mandatory distribution on the lowest level of service by all television providers. As part of the application, TV5 Québec Canada also proposed that the service be split into two multiplex channels, consisting of "TV5 International", and "TV5 Interrégional"—a new channel with programming that would highlight French-speaking communities outside of Quebec. The application was approved on August 8, 2013, by which time the Interrégional channel had been renamed "Unis"; the CRTC acknowledged that a channel focusing on Francophonie minority communities "would allow these communities to showcase their talents and culture while being able to see their lives, aspirations and achievements reflected to themselves on television". TV5 Québec Canada committed to airing 75% Canadian content on Unis. Unis officially launched on September 1, 2014. On 26 March 2026, the channel rebranded as TV5 Unis, as part of its adoption of TV5Monde's new brand identity. ==Programming==
