In 2018, Vincent Brousseau-Pouliot's English Language Arts Network (ELAN) filed an intervention to CRTC licence renewals for the service, seeking that Télé-Québec be required to devote 20% of its programming and budget to programs of interest to anglophone, indigenous, and other visible minority communities of Quebec. The proposal called for at least 10% of this quota to be put towards English-language programming. ELAN stated that this was intended to reflect the diversity of the province's population, arguing that they were served well by news programming, but underserved by cultural programming of interest. Télé-Québec objected to this proposal, citing that anglophones were already well-served by commercial English-language broadcasters. Bloc Québécois leader Martine Ouellet similarly argued that it was "not surprising that the anglophone community feels entitled to demand more." The CRTC declined the request, stating that it was beyond the scope of licence renewal, and "should be the subject of a policy proceeding in which broadcasters as a whole are considered."
