Glassbox also owned a production division creating television content and a digital publishing division that operates various digital properties including blogs, broadband portals, mobile sites, among others as well as representing various Canadian and international online advertising brands in Canada. ClosureOn April 11, 2011, it was announced that Blue Ant Media, an upstart media company headed by former Alliance Atlantis executive Michael MacMillan, would acquire a controlling interest in Glassbox Television. Blue Ant Media initially acquired a 29.9% stake in the company, with the option to expand their stake up to 75% which would give the company controlling interest.[3][4] The additional equity giving Blue Ant Media controlling interest would require Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission (CRTC) approval, which was approved on September 14, 2011.[5] The company would later be purchased outright by Blue Ant Media in the summer of 2012.[6] As of 2013, the company no longer exists, its 3 channels are now part of Blue Ant Media.
