What they’re saying
“ICI TOU.TV is the number one platform in Canada for on-demand, French-language video streaming.”
— CBC Radio-Canada Media Solutions (official platform statement)
“Download the ICI TOU.TV app for free today and never miss a single moment of your favourite Radio-Canada shows.”
— Roku Channel Store (app description)
For Canadians who follow French-language programming, the Radio-Canada schedule ecosystem is built around two official hubs: the horaire page for listings and ICI TOU.TV for live plus catch-up access. The broadcaster has invested heavily in making both platforms work across devices—smart TVs, streaming sticks, phones, and tablets all get native apps. The trade-off is that third-party schedule aggregators often lag behind the official pages, so if you’re planning your evening around a specific show, the ici.radio-canada.ca/tele/horaire link is the only one worth bookmarking.
