Cartoon Network is a Canadian English language Category B specialty channel that launched on July 4, 2012.[1][2]

The channel is based on the U.S. Cartoon Network, and broadcasts animated programming aimed at children daily. The network used to carry an Adult Swim-branded block from the channel's inception until March 4, 2019. That same day, Corus Entertainment announced the launch of a 24-hour Adult Swim channel, replacing the declining channel Action.

The channel is wholly owned by Corus Entertainment, with the Cartoon Network branding in use through a licensing agreement with WarnerMedia, the owners of the U.S.-based Cartoon Network. The channel is available in both standard definition and high definition.[2]

Before Cartoon Network launched, Teletoon had been broadcasting a weekly Cartoon Network programming block on the main network as of May 5, 2012.

On February 21, 2023, Corus announced that Teletoon would rebrand as Cartoon Network on March 27, 2023, with the existing Cartoon Network channel re-launching as a Canadian version of its sister brand Boomerang—which will focus on Warner Bros. Animation and Cartoon Network library content, and reboots of its classic properties. This leaves the French version of Teletoon, "Télétoon", and the streaming service, Teletoon+ on their own.
