NTV+

NTV+ doesn't pretend to be the loudest channel on Canadian cable, and that's its quiet strength. Its daytime block is a comfortable mix of lifestyle magazine shows and mid-tier talk programs, think kitchen renovations and regional news roundups rather than celebrity gossip. Prime time shifts into crime procedurals and Canadian dramas that probably won't win Emmys but hold your attention well enough. The schedule feels deliberately paced, with none of the frantic channel-surfing energy of American general entertainment nets. For viewers wanting to watch NTV+ online, the stream via Tvivu is dependable. The ad breaks are noticeably shorter than competitor channels, which is a small mercy. It's not groundbreaking television, but it knows what its audience wants: reliable, low-stakes entertainment that reflects Canadian sensibilities. If you're curious about General TV Canada beyond the usual US imports, NTV+ live offers a genuine domestic alternative.
