Slight mistake on CHRO, it was still a CBC affiliate at the time (it would go to CTV in 1991). Still a fantastic job on some unrecognized markets!
 
I thought the affiliation switch happened in 1989. I stand corrected.
For their part, the paper listed the network affiliation as simply "Mid-Canada."
 
I don't know what was wrong with my brain... those are obviously CBC programs listed for channel 5 but I forgot to go back and correct the error I made in the channel listing. Duhhh!!!
