Iran TV Network (ITN) is a Canadian exempt Category B Persian language specialty channel.
ITN is a general entertainment service, it airs programming aimed at the entire family including news, dramas, reality series, music, sports and more.
In November 2004, Ethnic Channels Group was granted approval from the Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission (CRTC) to launch a television channel called Persian/Iranian TV, described as "a national ethnic Category 2 specialty programming undertaking devoted to providing programming primarily to the Persian-, Azeri-, Kurdish-, Armenian- and Assyrian-speaking communities.
In May 2015, the channel was renamed 'Iran TV Network' once again due to loss of programming from Jaam-e-Jam.
[citation needed] On August 30, 2013, the CRTC approved Ethnic Channels Group's request to convert Jaam-e-Jam from a licensed Category B specialty service to an exempted Cat.
