Well the Ontario Goverment TV service in its french version already exist (TFO) but since a few years ago it is a different crown corporation (it separated from TVO and has its own admin and budget) therefore it has its own OTA License and more likely will operate an independent transmitter in those cities where it exists, like Sudbury. I would rather have them as a subchannel but more likely they will stay analog OTA since those are small markets with low power repeaters. Out of 15 transmitter only 2 are above 100 kw and another one only 10 kw , the rest less than 1 kw. They already have an HD service though that is only available via cable or satellite. So for a population of 900 they both will likely stay analog for a long time.
