| CBC Television Networks (2035 words) |
 | Despite the fact that Canadian television did not exist, by 1950, 30,000 television sets were purchased in Canada, and by the next year, another 40,000 were sold. |
| Television was brought by private stations to Kamloops, Kelowna, Medicine Hat, Swift Current, Red Deer, Noranda and an English station in Quebec City. |
| The CBC English Television Network, now numbering 46 stations (only 6 of which were CBC-owned) and accessible by 91% of Canadians, celebrated its status as the world's longest television network by broadcasting a July 1 program via microwave from links stretching between Victoria, British Columbia and Sydney, Nova Scotia. |
