TV1 (formerly Bell Local and Community One) is a group of community channels operated by Bell Canada's Fibe TV and FibreOP TV services and are exclusive to those services.

The service is primarily delivered via video on demand.[1]

History

Bell Local channels operated in four cities in Bell's Fibe TV service area; they were renamed TV1 on August 31, 2015.[2]

Bell Aliant simultaneously operated a single Community One channel serving all of Atlantic Canada, prior to its full acquisition by (and integration into) Bell Canada in 2014. In 2015, Bell Aliant acquired broadcast rights to Atlantic University Sport for broadcast on Community One.[3] Community One was also renamed TV1 in September 2015.

In 2019, as part of license renewals, the CRTC showed concerns over non-access programming tied to groups financially supported by Bell or starring personalities from local Bell Media radio and television stations. Bell defended the programs, arguing that they only constituted 5% of their output, were produced independently and "intimately tied to our various licence areas", and that they were designed to be associated with "popular" brands to attract viewership. As a result, Bell Media personalities or its content no longer appear on the platform.[1]

In recent years the channel has also invested in some scripted comedy and drama programming by independent local producers, including the series Pink Is In,[4] Vollies,[5] King & Pawn,[6] Sunshine City,[7] Stittsville on Patrol,[8] and The Missus Downstairs.[9]
