Corus Entertainment is one of Canada’s most successful integrated media and entertainment companies. Built from the media assets originally owned by Shaw Communications Inc., and spun off as a separate, publicly-traded company in 1999, our asset base has grown remarkably through strategic acquisitions and a strong operating discipline. Corus Entertainment's stock is found on the TSX under the symbol CJR.B and on the NYSE under CJR. The JR Shaw family controls the majority of Corus Entertainment's voting shares.

The many companies and businesses that make up Corus Entertainment deliver compelling, engaging, interactive and informative content to millions of consumers every day.

Our television services include: YTV, Treehouse, W Network, CosmoTV, CMT, SCREAM, Discovery Kids, Telelatino and TELETOON (50%); Western Canada’s exclusive pay-TV movie service on six thematic channels under the Movie Central brand; three local over-the-air television stations; Corus Custom Networks advertising services for television and Max Trax, a residential subscription digital music service.

We also boast the strongest collection of radio assets in the country, 53 stations clustered in major markets, reaching more people than any other radio group. Canadians tune to a Corus radio station each week for the best in talk, rock, country and contemporary radio formats 46 percent more often than our nearest competitor.

Nelvana, one of the world’s leading creators, producers and distributors of animated programming and related consumer products, renowned for such globally recognized brands as Babar, Franklin and Bakugan, is the cornerstone of our content and production strategy. Canada’s leader in children’s publishing – Kids Can Press – is another part of the Corus family.

Together, these powerful entertainment assets are achieving results that make Corus an industry leader in Canada and significant player in the international marketplace. Our success means a stronger Canadian broadcasting industry, a stronger economy and stronger communities across Canada.

Each year, the power and reach of Corus’ broadcasting assets work to assist local organizations, charities and people in need through millions of dollars worth of donated air-time and services, local fundraising and cash support. Through radio play for new Canadian singers and songwriters, the acquisition, development and production of numerous Canadian television projects and millions of dollars of direct investment in Canadian film production, Corus Entertainment is helping to build a sustainable and vibrant entertainment industry that is truly Canadian and globally competitive. At Corus, our vision is to be globally recognized as Canada’s most influential entertainment company. We’re achieving that vision with the hard work and commitment of our talented employees, many of whom are award-winners in their fields.
