==History==
In August 2005, John S. Panikkar (co-founder of High Fidelity HDTV), was granted a licence by the Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission (CRTC) to launch ''Artefact HD'', a digital HD specialty channel devoted to "collectors and their collections, and will showcase creations, celebrate beauty, intricacy, aesthetics and the merits of an object for its own sake."〔(Broadcasting Decision CRTC 2005-364 ) CRTC 2005-08-02〕
The channel launched on March 12, 2006〔(Bell ExpressVu Invites Canadians to Explore New High Definition Oasis and Visual Treasures ) BCE press release 2006-03-13〕 as Treasure HD; much of its programming and its name licensed from Rainbow Media, original owners of the now defunct Voom HD Networks. Like its American counterpart, the channel originally focused on factual art-based programming. When the American version ceased broadcasting in 2009, the Canadian channel broadened its programming to include live musical performance series and films.
The channel was rebranded as HIFI in August of 2011.〔(High Fidelity rebrands Treasure HD to HIFI ) Cartt.ca 2011-09-06〕 Later that year on December 21, 2011, HIFI's parent company, High Fidelity HDTV, announced that it had entered into an agreement to be purchased outright by Blue Ant Media, majority owners of Glassbox Television and minority owners of Quarto Communications. While initially purchasing 29.9% of the company, the remaining 70.1% was purchased after CRTC approval.〔(Blue Ant Media Enters Agreement to Acquire High Fidelity HDTV ) CNW press release 2011-12-21〕〔(Blue Ant Completes Acquisition of High Fidelity HDTV ), ''Broadcaster Magazine'', August 1, 2012.〕〔(Broadcasting Decision CRTC 2012-419 ) CRTC 2012-08-01〕
