Well, CTV doesn't have a second sister network like CanWest Global does in CH. But they've got City and A Channel to deal with but the only overlap is in Toronto/Barrie and Vancouver/Victoria.

Other media companies who could buy up parts of CHUM would be Quebecor who own the Toronto1 tv station or Alliance Atlantic that own a number of specialty channels like HGTV and Food Network.
