Description
History
TVi was originally owned by the Diversity Media Group who also owned and operated CMR Diversity FM 101.3, a media partner of TVi. Tamil Vision Inc. is no longer owned by the Diversity Media Group. Diversity Media Group has been decommissioned by the board of directors. TVi and CMR (CMR 101.3 FM) were from then on under a new management.
On September 17, 2012, the CRTC approved Tamil Vision's request to convert from a licensed Category B specialty service to an exempted Cat. B third language service.[1]
