History
In October 2004, IDNR-TV was granted approval by the Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission (CRTC) to launch a channel called The Natural Resources Television Channel, described as "an English-and French-language Category 2 specialty programming undertaking that will offer programming focusing on the field of natural resources."
The channel was launched on October 2, 2006 as IDNR-TV on selected Persona digital cable systems (now called EastLink), and in early 2007, the channel was launched on Cablevision du Nord.
A few years after EastLink purchased Persona, IDNR-TV was removed from all EastLink systems, leaving Cablevision du Nord in Quebec the only distributor of the channel. In May 2012, the channel reached its first major distribution deal with Cogeco in Quebec, however, the deal fell through in August 2012. The deal would have seen IDNR-TV carried on Cogeco's basic service in Quebec in the fall of 2012.
