A program block on Corus Entertainment’s YTV, called Treehouse, was the jumping off point for an application to the CRTC for a speciality channel of that name, to be dedicated to programming for pre-school children. A licence was granted in 1996, and Treehouse began broadcasting in 1997. The channel uses both original Canadian production and the best of pre-school programming from around the world
