ICI TÉLÉ programmes and identity
ICI TÉLÉ is Radio-Canada’s French-language general television service. Its current programme announcements bring together fiction, variety, factual television and programmes for younger audiences. The channel is relevant to francophone viewers across Canada; it should not be reduced to an English-language Canadian schedule with translated channel labels.
Francophone Canadian television includes stories and experiences from more than one region. A fictional serial, a variety format and a current-affairs conversation need different amounts of background, and a local edition can offer a different perspective from a national programme. The title, format and setting make those choices understandable without treating a French-language service as simply an English-language schedule translated into another language.
From the schedule to your screen
A television channel follows a running schedule. Its broadcaster may also have an app or on-demand collection, but a programme listed in one place does not automatically identify the same edition in another. Keeping the original channel name with a title makes the viewing route easier to recognise.
What to look for in the programme guide
Francophone Canadian fiction, variety, factual viewing and regional/national editions.

A national television brand can have regional editions, and the household may be watching from another country altogether. The country guide includes a dated time converter so an announced programme start can be connected with the local calendar day.
