As a result of a company reorganization to focus on content, TVA Group Inc has made some top level changes. Raynald Brière has been appointed as GM of the TVA Network. He retains his post as senior VP, broadcasting. Philippe Lapointe has been given responsibility for programming and news, and Serge Bellerose will be in charge of specialty channels. André Provencher, previously senior VP of the TVA Group, has announced his departure for an undisclosed new opportunity. Provencher spent 12 years with the company. The shuffle comes as TVA Network management is announcing the elimination of 35 jobs, mainly in administration to cut costs.
