Canada">Canadian</a> <a href="/wiki/Television_system" title="Television system">television system</a> and group of <a href="/wiki/Specialty_channel" title="Specialty channel">specialty channels</a> owned by <a href="/wiki/Rogers_Sports_%26_Media" title="Rogers Sports & Media">Rogers Sports & Media</a>, a subsidiary of <a href="/wiki/Rogers_Communications" title="Rogers Communications">Rogers Communications</a>. It currently consists of all six of Canada's conventional <a href="/wiki/Multicultural" class="mw-redirect" title="Multicultural">multicultural</a> television stations, which are located in <a href="/wiki/Ontario" title="Ontario">Ontario</a> (two stations), <a href="/wiki/British_Columbia" title="British Columbia">British Columbia</a>, <a href="/wiki/Alberta" title="Alberta">Alberta</a> (two stations), and an affiliate in <a href="/wiki/Quebec" title="Quebec">Quebec</a>. The system's flagship station is <a href="/wiki/CFMT-DT" title="CFMT-DT">CFMT</a> in Toronto, which was the first independent multicultural television station in Canada. </p><p>The Omni brand was first introduced in 2002 after Rogers launched a second station in Toronto, <a href="/wiki/CJMT-DT" title="CJMT-DT">CJMT</a>; the two stations were collectively branded as Omni Television, with CJMT branding as "Omni.2" and focusing on programs targeting Asian and African communities, and CFMT "Omni.1" focusing on targeting the European and Caribbean communities. The Omni brand expanded outside of Toronto for the first time in 2005, with Rogers' acquisition of religious independent stations in <a href="/wiki/CHNU-DT" title="CHNU-DT">Vancouver</a> and <a href="/wiki/CIIT-DT" title="CIIT-DT">Winnipeg</a>. </p><p>In 2007, Rogers secured new multicultural licenses in Calgary and Edmonton, announced its sale of the Vancouver and Winnipeg stations to <a href="/wiki/S-VOX" class="mw-redirect" title="S-VOX">S-VOX</a>, and then acquired Vancouver's existing multicultural station <a href="/wiki/CHNM-DT" title="CHNM-DT">CHNM</a>. In 2012, Omni added an affiliate in Montreal via the new multicultural station <a href="/wiki/CFHD-DT" title="CFHD-DT">CFHD-DT</a>, with Rogers agreeing to help support the station in exchange for relieving <a href="/wiki/CJNT-DT" title="CJNT-DT">CJNT</a> of its own multicultural remit. </p><p>Since September 2017, Omni began to be distributed throughout the remainder of the country, as a group of <a href="/wiki/Specialty_channel" title="Specialty channel">specialty channels</a> with <a href="/wiki/Must-carry" title="Must-carry">mandatory carriage</a>. This group is licensed under the blanket name <b>Omni Regional</b>; Rogers argued that revenue from mandatory carriage was necessary to restore and sustain the stations' local programming.

The complaint pointed out the CRTC's previous disagreement with the structure of Omni Regional upon its initial approval, and argued that the new proposal also weakened Omni's mandates to provide ethnic news and public affairs programming (replacing four hour-long programs in specific languages with six half-hour programs in non-specific third languages). It argued that "the CRTC choice is an affront to its original Call for a unique service, to the objectives of the Broadcasting Act and to the constitutionality of the principles of equality inherent in the Multiculturalism Act."<sup id="cite_ref-29" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-29"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>29<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>Independent Community Television Montreal (ICTV)—who had proposed a service known as Tele1—also requested an appeal, accusing CRTC commissioners Ian Scott and Caroline J.

CHNU and CIIT had previously aired many of the same types of syndicated sitcoms and multicultural programs shown regularly on the Omni stations in Toronto, and the Toronto stations carried some religious teaching programs. The common brand allowed cost savings for promotions and for the acquisition of the general-entertainment programs that all of the Omni stations had used to generate most of their revenues.
