The Weather Network’s free ad-supported streaming TV (FAST) channel is expanding its reach through a partnership with Pluto TV Canada.
Last week, The Weather Network debuted its FAST channel, providing real-time weather coverage for major Canadian cities, as well as new weather stories, in-depth features, an exclusive morning show and Canadian series such as Storm Hunters, Power to the People and Captured.
Katrina Kowalski, VP of content for Pluto TV and Paramount+ in Canada, says the addition is part of multi-vertical content strategy that provides relevant news coverage, in addition to entertainment content. Other news feeds available on Pluto TV Canada include Cheddar News and Global News feeds from multiple Canadian cities.
Other channels to be added to Pluto TV since its Canadian launch late last year include OUTtv Proud, Shades of Black and a slate of four channels operated by Blue Ant Media.
