Pelmorex

Based in Oakville, Ontario, it is the owner of the Canadian specialty channels The Weather Network (English) and MétéoMédia (French), and their associated digital properties.

In 2006, Pelmorex purchased the operations of World Weatherwatch, a meteorological service company with clients such as the Ontario Ministry of Transportation, Hydro One and Bruce Nuclear Generating Station.

In 2012, Pelmorex acquired the Spanish weather website eltiempo.es, where it focused on bolstering its digital and marketing operations, and hiring prominent local personality José Antonio Maldonado.

In 2011, the CRTC renewed the must-carry status, under the condition that Pelmorex allow all federal, provincial and territorial emergency management officials to have access to the system, that it commit at least $1 million per-year on public awareness campaigns, and that it develop "broadcast-intrusive" alerts.
