Magnolia Network is a Canadian English language discretionary specialty channel that broadcasts lifestyle programming related to home design, renovations, and food. The channel's brand and much of its foreign programming is licensed from its American namesake, Magnolia Network. The channel is a joint venture between HGTV Canada Inc., a subsidiary of Corus Entertainment (80.24% and managing partner) and Warner Bros. Discovery (who owns the remaining 19.76%).
The channel first launched on October 19, 2009 as DIY Network, a Canadian version of the U.S. network of the same name, by Canwest and Goldman Sachs, and Scripps Networks Interactive. The channel adopted its current name following its American counterpart in 2022.
Corus will lose the rights to the Magnolia Network brand and its U.S. programming at midnight Eastern time on December 31, 2024, at which point the original Corus operated channel is expected to cease operations. A new version operated by Rogers Sports & Media will launch immediately thereafter.
