(Login Required)APTN is a mandatory service available in over ten million Canadian households and commercial establishments with cable, direct-to-home satellite (DTH), telco-delivered and fixed wireless television service providers.
APTN reaches over three million viewers every week*. The APTN audience has increased at an astounding rate since its launch ten years ago.
Aboriginal Peoples are not part of the audience sampling frame according to BBM. As a result, the audience that is captured by APTN is non-Aboriginal only.
APTN is aimed at both Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal audiences with programming to interest all viewers: children’s animation, youth shows, cultural and traditional programming, documentaries, music, drama, dance, movies, as well as live coverage of special events and interactive programming.
- Over half (60%) of APTN programming is available only on APTN and cannot be seen on any other network.
- APTN airs more than 80% Canadian content and consistently exceeds its Canadian content requirements. The remaining percentage of the broadcast schedule includes Indigenous programming from around the world, including Australia, New Zealand, Central and South America and the U.S.
