Canal+ is a French pay television channel launched in 1984.
History
changeCanal+ was started in November 1984 by André Rousselet, and Pierre Lescure. Despite the channel having problems with the public, Rousselet was a personal friend of the president, François Mitterrand, and so obtained favourable terms for the setup. They became popular through political connections and broadcasting content unavailable on other French channels at the time.
