CFPL by this time was independent and the CBC affiliation had moved to CBLN. The only CFPL shows here I've heard of are Best Sellers (a boring perennial CHCH staple), Reach for the Top (which was produced in London at the time), and Inquiry (which has been a London-produced public-affairs program for over 30 years and still airs today) - sure goes to show how they were failing without a network affiliation!

That's what I get for relying on the Star's channel guide :D...they also had WNWO listed under its old calls of WDHO.
