Télé-Québec

Télé-Québec is the television network operated by the provincial government of Quebec, Canada.

It is parallel to Ontario's TVOntario, British Columbia's Knowledge Network and Saskatchewan's Saskatchewan Communications Network, and similar to the US PBS network, in that it is somewhat modest in scope, runs mostly educational or cultural programming, and does not try to compete with privately-owned television networks or with the Société Radio-Canada television network owned and operated by the federal government. The latter, by contrast, does strongly compete with private networks and overlaps with their programming categories.

Télé-Québec was formerly known as "Radio-Québec", perhaps by analogy with Société Radio-Canada, but this was misleading as it is a television network rather than a radio network.
