CICI is a Canadian television station, broadcasting in Greater Sudbury, Ontario. It is affiliated with CTV, and is the flagship of Northern Ontario's MCTV television system. Under the call letters CKSO, CICI was Canada's first privately-owned TV station. It was a CBC affiliate until 1971, when it joined CTV and adopted the current CICI calls. A new CBC affiliate, CKNC, went to air in Sudbury the day of CICI's affiliation switch. Until 1980, CICI and CKNC aggressively competed with each other for advertising dollars, leaving both in a precarious financial position due to the Sudbury market's relatively small size. In 1980, the Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission approved the merger of the two stations, along with their co-owned stations in North Bay and Timmins, into the MCTV twinstick. In 1990, the stations were acquired by Baton Broadcasting. Baton subsequently became the sole corporate owner of CTV, and sold CKNC to the CBC in 2002. CICI produces all of the MCTV stations' local programming, except for local news segments of MCTV's newscasts. CICI also broadcasts on Channel 3 in Elliot Lake and Channel 11 in Huntsville.
