WTSN was a Canadian digital specialty service dedicated to presenting women in sports. It was believed to be the world's first television service dedicated solely to women's sports.

Owned by Bell Globemedia and ESPN as a spinoff of TSN (The Sports Network), WTSN first began broadcasting in September 2001 but ceased operations on 30 September 2003, due to lack of expected growth and revenue.

WTSN presumably stands for "Women's TSN", and hence "Women's The Sports Network". Due to the inherent grammatical problems in this, some have suggested that it is an acronym for "Women's Television Sports Network", although TSN has given no official indication either way.
