Thunder Bay Television is the name under which the two television affiliates in Thunder Bay, Ontario, Canada operate: CKPR, a CBC affiliate, and CHFD, a CTV affiliate. It is what is known as a twinstick station.
As the affiliate of two networks, Thunder Bay Television airs programs from both CBC and CTV on their respective stations. The stations also purchase local rights to some programming aired on Global and CH elsewhere in Canada, as neither of those networks broadcast in Thunder Bay. It also produces and broadcasts local news and current affairs programs and specials, such as Thunder Bay Idol and live coverage of the Lakehead Thunderwolves hockey team.
The stations are independently owned and operated by Fraser Dougall, who also runs a pair of radio stations, CKPR and CJSD, a weekly newspaper, Thunder Bay's Source and the news website tbsource.com. Dougall Media also operates several radio stations in Northwestern Ontario, including CFNO in Marathon and CFQK in Kaministiquia.
