JumpTV Partners With Canoe.TV to Provide Live International TV Channels


Partnership to Make JumpTV Channels Available Free to Consumer on One of
Canada's Leading Portals


TORONTO--(Marketwire - December 06, 2007) - JumpTV Inc. (AIM: JTV) (TSX: JTV), a
leader in broadcasting International television and sports content over the
Internet, has partnered with Canoe.TV, a part of the Canoe.ca Network and owned
by Quebecor Inc. (TSX: QBR.A) (TSX: QBR.B), to broadcast selected channels on a
free to consumer, ad-supported, basis within Canada.


The Canoe Network attracts approximately 8 million unique visitors per month in
Canada and includes content sites such as Canoe.ca, Canoe.qc.ca, La Toile du
Quebec, Canoe Money, the TVA network site and the LCN site.


Canoe.TV, recently launched, will initially carry five of JumpTV's premium
international television channels: MBC1 (Arabic), CVM TV (Jamaica), AAJ TV
(Pakistan), Sahara Filmy (India) and RTP International (Portugal). The number of
JumpTV channels available to Canoe.TV users is expected to increase over the
next several months.


In addition to JumpTV's live channels, Canoe.TV will work with independent
production companies in Canada to produce exclusive content and will also
broadcast a wide selection of on-demand video content from JumpTV as well as
partners such as the CBC, House and Home, The Fight Network and Just For Laughs,
among others.


Canoe intends to sell advertising in connection with Canoe.TV and share an
amount of the advertising revenue with its content partners including JumpTV.


"We believe there is strong consumer demand for online video and we are excited
to be entering this rapidly growing space through our newly launched Canoe.TV.
JumpTV was a natural choice when looking to expand our offering to include
television from around the world as clearly they have the largest selection of
premium international content available on the web," said Pierre Karl Peladeau,
president and CEO of Quebecor Media Inc.


Mike JB John Baptiste, head of global distribution for JumpTV added, "We are
delighted to launch our first live free to consumer content in Canada with
Canoe. We believe that Canadian companies active in promoting their brands
online can uniquely connect with foreign born Canadians by advertising alongside
JumpTV international television content."


"Moreover", he continued, "Canada represents a significant market opportunity
for JumpTV's international television and sports content as cities such as
Toronto, Vancouver, Montreal and Quebec City are incredibly ethnically diverse."


In the United States, JumpTV offers approximately 120 of its 300 international
television channels from 75 countries on a free to consumer, ad supported basis,
with the balance of its channels offered on a subscription basis. In all other
countries, JumpTV international channels are on a subscription basis.


JumpTV's 175 sporting properties which include approximately 135 US colleges and
universities are offered worldwide on a subscription basis for premium content
with significant free to consumer content offered as well.
