TFO is a Canadian French language educational and cultural public television station in the province of Ontario, with a focus on programming for children, and on documentaries and repertory films for adults. TFO also produces and distributes supporting content for the Web and mobile devices. It is the only French-language multimedia network in Canada that is headquartered outside of Quebec.
Formerly owned and operated by TVOntario, TFO became an independent agency of the provincial government of Ontario in 2007.
TFO is available on cable throughout Ontario, and all cable companies in the province are required to carry it. However, the network does also broadcast over the air in some communities in Eastern and Northern Ontario with significant Franco-Ontarian populations. TFO is also carried via satellite on Bell TV channel 137. It was also seen on Star Choice channel 763 until August 28, 2008, when the service dropped the station.
