I suspect you’re correct on this.
I have been looking for a ‘special presentation’ on CTV linear as they have a track record of inserting those when they’re out of alignment with streaming releases.

Checking the CTV Sci-fi schedule on Thursday, July 5th at 9 pm - the usual slot for new Star Trek - Snowpiercer is shown. The rest of the evening has the usual Star Trek Voyager reruns.
Sigh.
The closest Chapman’s flavour to that might be Premium Chocolate & Brownies Ice Cream, but Rok herself might like the classic Rocket ice Lollies.
TrekCore is saying that in Canada season 1 will be available on the CTV app.
😞😢😭😿😿😿
The app won’t carry any new episodes On Demand until one day after they run on cable.
But the second season isn’t showing as a future option so that’s concerning.
I’m ever hopeful, but Prodigy isn’t a great fit with CTV Sci-fi Channel given theirs advertisers.
I’ve been checking CTV Sci-fi forward schedule in case a ‘special event’ might show up.
Complete void.
Some interesting stuff in this article.
It looks like Skydance thought that getting the non-voting class B Paramount shareholders on board would put pressure on the voting ones.
But it seems like Redstone was sensitive to the minority group of voting shareholders and that they were not on side. That is, it wasn’t enough to have the Redstones as the majority holders of class A NAI shares, and the majority of non-voting class B Paramount shareholders, Shari Redstone felt she had to have sufficient support from the minority of voting NAI shareholders to avoid problems such as accusations of imposing losses on a group.
“According to a source familiar with the talks, Redstone’s request for a “majority of the minority” vote, in which other Class A shareholders could vote to approve or nix the deal, was a nonstarter for Skydance, and the studio was anticipating a regulatory review of more than a year, which gave Redstone pause given the constraints it would have required of the business in the meantime.”
I believe their licence for Star Trek has expired so what’s already ordered is it.
Mine hasn’t arrived yet but it’s on the way.
I have no idea what the second is, but if Marvel has hired her, they are very smart.
A 90 minute animated streaming movie for either Netflix or Paramount could be great.
