A brief history as I know it about MTV Canada: MTV came to Canada in the early 2000s. In June 2005, it suddenly disappeared and was replaced by a “youth channel” called Razer. This left us in a void of crappy programming.

The peculiar thing is that I started writing this post with the intention of discussing how I wish we could get some MTV shows like MTV Real World could be shown in Canada but then decided to shelve it until I was ready to elaborate.

Recently CTV bought the rights to MTV Canada and it’s back!
