History

In December 2000, TEN Broadcasting Inc. was granted approval for a television broadcasting licence by the Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission (CRTC) for a channel called TEN - Channel 1, described as "a national English-language Category 2 specialty television service devoted to adult entertainment programming, including adult entertainment films, talk shows, phone-in shows and other programming on the theme of sexuality. This will range from entertainment material to educational and analytical material on sexuality and health."

In June 2003, TEN reached a deal with Larry Flynt Publications to brand the channel under the Hustler name. It was subsequently launched in July 2003 as Hustler TV, initially on StarChoice.
