*The Alouettes are owned directly by Quebecor’s controlling shareholder Pierre Karl Péladeau.

*** Maple Leaf Sports and Entertainment owns the Toronto Maple Leafs, Toronto Marlies, Toronto Argonauts, Toronto FC, Toronto Raptors, Toronto’s Scotiabank Arena, and NBA TV Canada. Bell’s ownership in this company is divided between itself and its pension fund. Bell has agreed to sell its stake to Rogers for $4.7 billion and secured a 20-year broadcasting rights deal for Toronto Maple Leafs and Toronto Raptors games.

Note: I’ve excluded most third-language specialty channels from the above charts for simplicity. I’ve also excluded most cases where a licence has been issued for a channel that hasn’t launched.

I’m sure there are some errors in the chart above. So if you spot one, let me know.
