Cochrane exits Teletoon

Len Cochrane, president of Teletoon Canada, is set to retire this month following Corus Entertainment’s recent acquisition of the company from Bell Media.

Cochrane, a founding board member of Teletoon Canada, has been president since October 2001 and will depart the company later this month.

During this time Cochrane oversaw the activities of five English- and French-language nationwide television networks: Teletoon, Télétoon, Teletoon Retro and Télétoon Rétro and Cartoon Network.

Corus received final regulatory approval for its takeover of Teletoon Canada, as well as the Historia and Séries+ channels, late last year.
