CTS was rebranded as "Yes TV" on September 1, 2014. The rebranding coincides with the introduction of several secular programs into the schedule such as American Idol, Wheel of Fortune and Jeopardy!.[2]
Programming
Yes TV airs programming intended for family viewing, mostly based on Christian values, including dramas, comedies, mini-series and reality, game, and talk shows; although Yes TV also features shows on political commentary and other religions, including Judaism, Islam and Sikhism. Yes TV also airs secular mainstream programs during prime time hours. It is governed by the CRTC's Religious Broadcast Regulations and follows a policy of not airing shows containing "coarse language, gratuitous violence or explicit sexual scenes."
On August 11, 2011, 3½ weeks before the official August 31 date on which Canadian television stations in CRTC-designated mandatory marketstransitioned from analogue to digital broadcasts,[4] the station shut down its analogue signal and flash cut its digital signal into operation on UHF channel 32.
