History
In October 2004, IDNR-TV was granted approval from the Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission (CRTC) to launch a channel called The Natural Resources Television Channel, described as "an English-and French-language Category 2 specialty programming undertaking that will offer programming focusing on the field of natural resources."[1]
The channel was launched on October 2, 2006 as IDNR-TV on selected Persona digital cable systems[2] (now called EastLink), and in early 2007, the channel was launched on Cablevision du Nord.[3]
