This is a list of television stations in Canada licensed to broadcast by the Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission (CRTC), all having call signs which begin with the letter C.
A blue background indicates a station that continues to broadcast exclusively via an analogue transmission in lieu of a conversion to digital broadcasting. A dark blue background indicates a station that acts as the flagship of a television network (CBC, Ici Radio-Canada, TVA, CTV, Citytv and Global) or a television system (CTV 2, CBC North and Omni).
Note that in recent years most Canadian television stations affiliated with a network are generally no longer identified by their call letters on air for the purposes of branding. For example, CFQC-DT in Saskatoon is branded as "CTV Saskatoon" and so on.
