(Winnipeg, Manitoba) |} CKEM is a television station owned by Craig Media Inc. and based in Edmonton, Alberta. It is the first station to become part of the A-Channel system as well as the only ultra-high frequency station in the system. The station went on the air for the first time on September 18, 1997. On September 17, 2003, several employees who were members of the Canadian Energy and Paperworkers Local 1900 went on strike over worry of jobs being lost, wages, and jobs being moved to Calgary (including Master Control operations). The strike lasted 166 days. Recently, CKEM's master control was moved to CKAL in Calgary, Alberta. In 2004, Craig Media announced a deal to sell the A-Channel stations to CHUM Limited. The sale was approved by the Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission on November 19, 2004, and became official on December 1. CKEM will be rebranded as Citytv in September, 2005. A transmitter in Red Deer, Alberta rebroadcasts the station. ==External link== * http://edmonton.a-channel.com/ Television stations in Alberta CHUM Limited Edmonton media
