Curio.ca Renewal 2019-2020 [1]
NEW IN 2019-2020 :
The CBC has obtained distribution rights for content from the BBC. They are currently in the process of loading this content on their platform. They anticipate that it will be available in September 2019. This does mean though that there are no trials available until it launches.
From the CBC:
We are extremely pleased to announce a new BBC specialty channel on curio.ca [2] that offers a wide range of titles in English and French from the UKʼs public broadcaster, a world leader in innovative storytelling. Content will delve into international history, social justice, earth and space science, medicine, animal behaviour and technology. Also among English-language programs in the channel are short animated and liveaction segments from BBC Teach, ideal for the elementary educator.
