Z is a Canadian French language Category A specialty channel owned by Bell Media. Z focuses on programming primarily from the science fiction, fantasy, and technology genres consisting of dramas, films, and documentaries. ==History== In May 1999, Radiomutuel Inc. was granted approval by the Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission (CRTC) for a television broadcasting licence for a channel called ''Canal Z, aux limites du savoir'', described as "a national French-language television specialty service that is dedicated entirely to science and technology, the earth and its secrets, space exploration, the paranormal and science fiction, lifestyles and computer science."〔http://www.crtc.gc.ca/eng/archive/1999/DB99-110.HTM〕 Before the channel was launched, in June 1999, Astral Media announced its intention to purchase Radiomutuel,〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Astral bids on Radiomutuel )〕 which was approved by the CRTC on January 12, 2000〔http://www.crtc.gc.ca/eng/archive/2000/DB2000-5.htm〕 and closed shortly thereafter. The channel launched on January 31, 2000〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Astral integrates Radiomutuel TV )〕 as Canal Z (often referred to as simply Z). The channel was renamed Ztélé in 2005 and a new logo was introduced. Astral Media was acquired by Bell Media in 2013, making Ztélé a sister channel to the English-language science-fiction channel, Space. On August 25, 2014, the channel has been renamed Z.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Bell Media - Details )〕 File:Ztele (channel) .png|Canal Z logo (2000-2005) File:Ztélé (logo).svg|Ztélé logo (2005-2014) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Z (TV channel)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
