CHCH began broadcasting in 1954 as a Canadian Broadcasting Corporation affiliate. In 1961, CHCH disaffiliated from the CBC and became an independent station. They wanted to produce a larger amount of local programming, instead of being forced to carry CBC programming. They were the first independent Anglophone television station in Canada. Western International Communications purchased CHCH in 1990, and in 1997 CHCH's signal expanded to cover all of Ontario, although it had been available on cable in many Ontario markets for many years. WIC then rebranded the station OnTV, representing the station's expanded coverage but also to match the naming pattern of its other stations (such as BCTV, ITV, RDTV, etc.) During the OnTV years, the station aired WIC's nightly ''Canada Tonight'' newscast. In 2000, CanWest Global Communications purchased WIC and assumed control of its stations. Since a Global Television Network station (Toronto, Ontario's CIII) already broadcasts to Hamilton, CanWest rebranded the station CH on February 12, 2001, starting a secondary television system for its stations in medium-sized markets that wouldn't fit in the Global network. Some cablesystems outside of Ontario carry CHCH as a "superstation". CHCH is still available throughout most of Ontario; however, it cannot broadcast to Thunder Bay, Ontario, Peterborough, Ontario, Oshawa, Ontario or Kingston, Ontario because of complaints made to local cablesystems by other local stations. On June 7, 2004, CHCH-TV celebrated 50 years on the air. Notable personalities associated with the station have included Brian Linehan, Jennifer Mossop and Jane Hawtin. The station has also produced a number of important Canadian television syndication series, including ''The Hilarious House of Frightenstein'', ''Me & Max'' and ''Smith & Smith''. Hamilton native Martin Short also had his first television appearance on CHCH. == See also == *List of programs broadcast by CH == External link == * [http://www.canada.com/hamilton/chtv CH website] Television stations in Ontario CHCH'' CHCH is still available throughout most of Ontario; however, it cannot broadcast to Thunder Bay, Peterborough, Oshawa or Kingston because of complaints made to local cablesystems by other local stations.'' Eh? It is available on Rogers Cable (only cable provider) in Oshawa, and it is receivable by antenna as well. It is not entirely clear what is being said..
