Radio-Canada Channel 3 Quebec City Channel 11 Moncton (SRC)

A little complicated explaining channel 3: that station is actually CBJR-TV in Rimouski -- which moved to channel 2 in 1984. TVG never bothered changing the channel when the station changed theirs -- it remained channel 3 until the Maritimes Edition folded a few years back.

For the record, SRC in Quebec City is actually channel 11, CBVT.

Though CJBRT is a de facto relay of CBVT, but originates a local newscast which is also carried on CBST Sept-Iles, CBGAT Matane and for the first 30 min by CKRT-TV Riviere-du-Loup (who airs their own local news at 6:30, following the newscast on sister station CIMT). YouTube has a "Radio-Canada Quebec" sign-off which lists the tx for CBVT, CBGAT, CJBRT and CBST.
Also a quick note on the Downeaster Jamboree listing for WLBZ...that was produced by Dartmouth Cable TV (now EastLink) in the Halifax area, this show was also syndied on the Bragg systems in Nova Scotia and PEI (I used to be a MCO at the Amherst station, and remember playing this show on the air). ;D
 
A late addition...

Hee Haw Northeast?

Probably one of those local or regional country-western shows, just like what many stations in the south and west had in the 1960s and 1970s.

Though there's an hour of news blocking the two, apparently to keep kids away from Rush as far as possible -- they already have their own "rush" on Saturday mornings: "sugar rush" (from the cereals).

Local community access program from the Halifax area. My guess would be the producers (Dartmouth Cable TV) used WLBZ to expand the show's reach beyond the Bragg cable systems in Nova Scotia.
