Winnipeg's CanWestGlobalPark modified its logo in April 2006 to reflect the new Global logo, the CanWest Performing Arts Centre in Winnipeg removed the crescent from its logo, and Prime was rebranded TVtropolis, with a completely different logo, on June 1, 2006.
In 2003, Global signed comedian Mike Bullard, host of the nightly Open Mike with Mike Bullard on CTV and the Comedy Network, to a multi-year contract for a new nightly talk show on Global, but The Mike Bullard Show was cancelled after 60 episodes amid poor ratings.
Global is the Canadian broadcast-television rightsholder for the National Football League and, hence, the Super Bowl.
The park isn't really part of the The Forks complex, but it is "just downstream." Both are on a river plain originally used as a massive railroad switchyard.
The Forks are at the "forks" (meeting of the Assiniboine and Red Rivers), the park is due north.
There's a parking lot is between but be warned: This is a "danger zone" since it's prime territory for foul balls, though much less so thanks to the new routes past the ballpark.
