I know at least a couple others introduced the anthem too, but a lot cut straight to their respective montages after saying goodnight. At least one or two Canadian stations had no sign-off / sign-on spiels at all.
I love old-style stills used by TV stations for station IDs, "technical difficulty" cards, sign-ons, and sign-offs.They might have been simple photos of a landscape, or of the broadcast tower used, or just a logo with a bit of calligraphy, and perhaps even included a clock to start or end the day. (CHAT TV had a Bulova clock from a jeweler to mark 12:30 pm, along with a jingle for a local bakery, for some time in the late Seventies.)
The movie that CKNX was playing on Triple terror feature theater for the night was: "Devil dog: The hounds of hell". Just for all of you who didn't know, it was a horror film and so forth.
Probably "O Canada" still. It may not have been official until 1980 but it was the only national anthem I knew while growing up, and that was long before 1980.
Good Day I grew up not too far from Wingham, & watched a lot of CKNX programs as a Boy. I also listened to CKNX FM (a little bit before the programming change over). They sent our family a questionnaire in ?1983? which I filled out. They changed formats after that & was a very regular listener. CKNX AM programming was sent to the transmitter through the Bell telephone lines back then.
It was used From CBC Radio in Toronto and across Canada in 1980's until in 1990's and In TV these stations including in British Columbia in 1986/1987 and in Toronto in 1989 using the original Canadian national anthem is O Canada until in 1992 and 1994
Brian Elmslie or Dave Curzon on the sign off voice over , I think the Triple Terror voice may be a young John Chippa, don't think it's Bryan Allen, may be Gary Ryan......anyone? anyone?
interesting....is James Reynolds the same James Reynolds who's in NBC's soap Days of our Lives as Abe Carver???... I never been to Canada but would like to go...it's a nice country huh???...it's pretty...I seen pictures
CTVglobemedia (now Bell Media) announce that CKNX-TV will not renew the station's licence, CKNX-TV signs off for life on August 31, 2009 to give way for the Analog rebroadcaster of CFPL-TV in London, Ontario.
I've seen this before. It's a piece of silver tape that was placed over where the "cue marks" would be on these film prints to indicate when a commercial break was to happen.
@@JasonDelarosa2000 This is a 16mm film print that is being projected from a special telecine projector at the TV station. the "tape" I mention appears black since it's opaque when projected via a light source. It was placed there by an editor when preparing the print to show live on TV. This was before video tape replaced this job.

The voice of CKNX was Brian Elmslie. I grew up in the early '60's with only 2 Television Stations to watch, and CKNX was one of them!
One of the only Canadian stations to say "And now, our national anthem".
CBLT Channel 5 in Toronto also said that phrase in 1992

Sounded untracked.

Movie was "Devil Dog: The Hound of Hell" (1978).

The ending of Triple Terror right before the sign-off and bars is thrice as scary.

Finally got a broadcast date for this recording: Sunday, September 6, 1981.
It was used for sign off of CBC British Columbia in 1980's and in Toronto in 1989 using the original national anthem O Canada
From what I understand, CKNX ended its original broadcasting on Aug. 31/09 and not just rebroadcasts the CFPL signal. CKNX, RIP.

1:56 Lady and Gentlemen's, Our National Anthem
right away after the ahtem for canada the transmitter shuts down
I watched this airing. Scared to sleep that night.

Man... for 1981, that Devil Dog print (from 78) was already pretty worn out.
It's quality adds to the creepiness though
Featuring the end of the TV movie, "Devil Dog: The Hound of Hell" with Richard Crenna and Yvette Mimieux!
I was wondering what movie included, in the featured cast, Jerry Fogel (from "The Mothers-in-Law")!
I remember that film. I enjoyed it a lot but then again I am a horror fan so that is expected.
RIP CKNX TV
1:52 That CKNX logo reminds me of WGBH Boston!!!
@lockenjr Yes, at least in the southwestern part of the Province. Not sure if they received them outside of the lower mainland.
This is simply wonderful! Thanks for posting
Good thinking Devil Dog The Hound of Hell
I hear their transmitter is "near Formosa," and wonder how they could possibly broadcast from Taiwan. 🙂
I was too scared to watch the beginning of Triple Terror. I used to cover my head and plug my ears!
0:05 All you need is Candace and you'll be convinced the beautiful older sister of _Phineas and Ferb_ was in this movie! Right?
What does that have to do with anything?
