In August 2006, the network airing Street Cents, CBC Television, decided to cancel the series as its target demographic, teens and preteens, have shown a decline of viewership.

The CBC subsequently announced its own revival of the Street Cents brand as a TikTok, Instagram and YouTube account in 2022, hosted by Anisha Joshi, Mercedes Gaztambide and Ian (Creo) Walters.

As boss, Ken's image changed completely, as he was cool, wore all black leather (including pants), had a goatee, and always was able to snap his hand to reveal an item for dramatic effect.

Jamie Bradley left the show in 1994 as host and was replaced by Anna Dirksen but made cameo appearances for several years after.

By the ninth season, Street Cents took on a more news-magazine style while maintaining a focus on empowering young people to make their own educated decisions about the media and products they consume.

During the final few years, the show also expanded by featuring segments on various teen issues such as divorce, interracial dating, and eating disorders.
