CHOT-TV is a television station in Gatineau, Quebec, Canada. It is affiliated with the TVA network, and also serves Franco-Ontarians in the neighbouring city of Ottawa, Ontario. The station broadcasts on channel 40, and it is owned by RNC Media as a twinstick with CFGS, the market's TQS affiliate.
The station launched in 1978, following the bankruptcy of the region's earlier TVA affiliate CFVO.
The station airs a 30-minute local newscast every weekday at 6:00pm anchored by Lucas Jacques. In the past, CHOT had local news on weekends and a 15-minute noon newscast on weekdays, but recent cuts made by RNC Media had these newscasts replaced with Montreal-based TVA network news programs.
