CFTF is a French-language television station in Rivière-du-Loup, Quebec, and an affiliate of TQS, a commercial television network in Quebec. The station is owned by Télé Inter-Rives, which also owns Radio-Canada affiliate CKRT and TVA affiliate CIMT, making the station part of a so-called “triple-stick”—three stations owned by a single owner.
The station airs a 15-minute regional newscast at 5:30 p.m. on weekdays from its Rivière-du-Loup studio, with additional reporting from a bureau in Carleton, Quebec at co-owned CHAU.
The station may soon also have a transmitter in Rimouski. The TQS station in the city, CJPC-TV, presently rebroadcasts CFJP from Montreal, and a joint application by TQS and Télé Inter-Rives presently under review by the CRTC, Canada's communications regulator, would have CJPC becoming a repeater of CFTF, as well as a news bureau being built in the city.

CFTF is only one of two TQS affiliates to have more than one transmitter (the other is Val d'Or's CFVS).
