Canada Post is honouring two Canadian music television stations with new stamps set to be revealed next week.

The postal operator announced Thursday that its latest stamps will feature MuchMusic and MusiquePlus for their impact in Canadian music.

Canada Post says the stations connected Canadians with their favourite musicians and established a platform for generations of artists.

MuchMusic launched in 1984, while MusiquePlus was founded two years later, and both were spearheaded in part by Moses Znaimer.

The stations hosted several popular programs over the years including MuchMusic’s “Countdown” and “Video on Trial.”

Canada Post will unveil the stamps at a pair of celebrations next Thursday in both Toronto and Montreal at the buildings that housed MuchMusic and MusiquePlus.
