Omni Television, corporately styled as OMNI Television, is a Canadian television system owned and operated by Rogers Communications. It currently consists of all six of Canada's conventional multicultural television stations, which are located in Ontario (2), British Columbia, Alberta (2), and Quebec (the latter as a secondary affiliate). In addition, Rogers also briefly operated religious television stations in the Vancouver and Winnipeg television markets under the "Omni" brand before divesting them in 2008.
Derived from the Latin word “omnis” meaning “all”, "Omni" is not an acronym, although the name is written all in capital letters.

Famous quotes containing the word television:
“His [O.J. Simpson’s] supporters lined the freeway to cheer him on Friday and commentators talked about his tragedy. Did those people see the photographs of the crime scene and the great blackening pools of blood seeping into the sidewalk? Did battered women watch all this on television and realize more vividly than ever before that their lives were cheap and their pain inconsequential?”
—Anna Quindlen (b. 1952)
