50 Years of CTV Winnipeg
On November 12th 1960, C-JAY TV signed on for the first time and began producing local entertainment, news and information programming. Over the years, C-JAY became CKY, and finally CTV. Over the past 50 years one thing has remained the same, CTV Winnipeg is dedicated to delivering full news coverage in our community.
Today, CTV News at 6 is Manitoba’s most watched television program. Thanks to viewers like you, we are Manitoba’s News Leader. We have a 50 year commitment to news, weather, sports, and entertainment and are dedicated to providing information that matters most to Manitobans.
