Quibi is giving Canadians a new way to get their news

Canadians are about to get a new way to get their news thanks to Quibi, the first entertainment platform built for easy, on-the-go mobile viewing. Quibi is short for 'quick bites', as all the content is ten minutes or less, and viewers can watch on their phone/tablet. Bell Media has announced three new 'Daily Essentials' programs to launch along with the platform on April 6th: NewsDay by CTV News (hosted by Heather Butts), NewsNight by CTV News (hosted by Reshmi Nair) and Sports AM by TSN (hosted by Kayla Grey and Lindsay Hamilton).Reshmi Nair broke down exactly how the platform works, and what her show NewsNight by CTV News will be about in the video above. NewsNight by CTV News will be available for streaming every day weekday evening by 5 p.m. NewsDay by CTV News will have new episodes available for streaming on Quibi every weekday morning by 6:30 a.m. ET and weekend mornings by 9 a.m. ET. Sports AM by TSN new episodes are available for streaming every morning, seven days a week.[video_embed id='1915207']BEFORE YOU GO: Quibi plans to change the way people consume content.
