The 2017–18 network television schedule for the five major English commercial broadcast networks in Canada covers primetime hours from September 2017 through August 2018. The schedule is followed by a list per network of returning series, new series, and series canceled after the 2016-17 television season, for Canadian, American and other series.
CBC Television was first to announce its fall schedule on May 24, 2017,[1] followed by Global on June 5, 2017,[2] City on June 6, 2017,[3] and CTV and CTV Two on June 7, 2017.[4] As in the past, the commercial networks' announcements come shortly after the networks have had a chance to buy Canadian rights to new American series.
CTV Two and Global are not included on Saturday as they normally only schedule encore programming in primetime on Saturdays.
