The weather channel generally forecasts their own weather using a large team of meteorologists to cover all regions. Radar and satellite images come from NOAA (National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration), as do all watches and warnings (they do not issue any of their own).

SteveLocal National Weather Service stations use Doppler Radar to find local areas of precipitation, hail, severe weather, etc. that they put on weather maps. If it's a nationwide map it probably came from NOAA which uses satellite and infrared imagery to see precipitation and cloud cover.

Why is weather channel different from your local forecast?
The weather channel makes its own forecasts. This will differ from your local forecast, whether you're referring to your local news station or your local National Weather Service office. All make their own forecasts, though they generally use the same data and computer models. All except for the NWS are private companies, of course.
How often does Environment Canada issue new weather forecasts?
Environment Canada issues new weather forecasts every four hours normally. If there is an unusual weather event coming such as hurricanes then the weather forecasts are updated more frequently.
