Canadian Broadcasting Corporation - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia The CBC is the oldest broadcasting service in the country, first established in its present form on November 2, 1936. Viewership on the CBC's French TV network has also declined, mostly because of stiff competition from the private French-language networks and fragmentation, since French Canadians prefer home-grown television programming (there is a vibrant Quebec star system) and there is little American or foreign content on the French-language networks, public or private. CBC television stations in Nunavut, the Northwest Territories and Yukon tailor their programming mostly to the local native population, and broadcast in many native languages, such as Inuktitut, Gwichʼin, and Dene. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Canadian_Broadcasting_Corporation   (5771 words)

CBC Television Networks Colour TV came to Canada when the CBC was authorized to spend an initial $15-million to convert its facilities, equipment and transmitters to the specifications needed for colour TV. CBC was host broadcaster for Expo ’67, the World’s Fair called Man And His World, which ran for six months on a group of man-made islands on the St. Lawrence River in Montreal to mark the 100th Anniversary of Canada’s Confederation. CBC's networks began to be carried on the newly-established Anik-1 satellite, aiding in expanding the scope of CBC's reach, particularly to areas of the far north that formerly were dependent on receiving CBC's national prime-time programming via Frontier Coverage Packages. www.broadcasting-history.ca /networks/networks_CBC_Television.html   (2035 words)

Our Public Airwaves - CBC reach is 5 times that of Globe The rest of the TV audience is divided up among many dozens of other channels; some of them, like A&E or CNN, have 2-3 per cent audience shares and are considered vital by the many Canadians who pay to watch them on cable or satellite. CBC TV's prime-time schedule should devote as much time each week to Canadian drama as it does to news and public affairs or sports programming, which in each case is about eight hours. CBC should also quadruple the amount of money it spends on English TV drama, money that initially should be found largely from within existing CBC budgets. www.publicairwaves.ca /index.php?page=1434   (3081 words)

Renewal of Distribution Rights for CBC TV Contracts During negotiations for the current TV Agreement in 1998, the Guild agreed that as an alternative to renewing your program under the terms of the older agreement under which it was contracted, a writer could agree to the terms now found in the Archival Section of the 1998-2000 Agreement.
