I've NEVER watched a Canadian TV station sign-off before today!! I'm an American, and this is great stuff!! Thank you and hello from SoCal--San Diego, California to be exact!! :) :)
Used to listen to the news on CTK AM-radio from Regina [550 or 540 AM], in the sixties... best Vietnam news since it was fair to the Vietnamese... the news ended with the sign-off and a very majestic playing of "God Save the Queen" CTK was audible all the way down here in Texas after about 10 PM.
Awesome! Do they still sing "God Save the Queen"? I hope so. In the words of "Kids in the Hall": "Without the Queen and the French you're just Americans". It's a joke of course but like all jokes there's truth in it!
second verse reads: "O Lord God arise, scatter her enemies, and make them fall/confound their politics, frustrate their evil tricks/ on Thee our eyes we fix/God save us all."

For those who are familiar with the American 1960 "Government God" subliminal TV signoff video, this CKY video, has a brief glimpse of the base of GWEN Towers. US Version shows the message, CKY shows the method of transmission. Targeted individuals will understand.

Federal requirements mainly, but also as a courtesy to the viewing audience (especially to the broadcasting enthusiasts like myself). Canadian stations were all required to list the communities they serve, as well as on which channels / frequencies the repeater transmitters in those communities are allotted too.

Now there is NO sign offs...ALL stations continue with anything...even repeats...lol
At least, that's how it looks to me.
~Eleanor Geib
Yep, even at 3AM.
My opinion is that they should do a faux sign-off the continue the transmission

My mom and dad had to sing God save the Queen when they had to go to school too
My parents did too
Admittedly I have lived in Michigan for the past 50 years now but it is hard for me to get used to God Save the King instead of God Save the Queen.
@@mharris5047they're literally just the same but with different pronouns for the monarch
Beautiful.
BBC radio 4 plays God Save The Queen before they switch to the world service
BBC Radio 4 during Closedown after the shipping forecast
Great sign-on!!!!!!
Off* rather 😂
3:11 "God Save the Queen" (Canadian Royal Anthem)
4:09 "O Canada" (Canadian National Anthem)
The oh canada was used for the CBC sign off
Interesting to hear the announcer give distances in miles. They were probably one of the last stations to switch to km.

Are you American? LOL
There is indeed some truth to that.

Well, "King" now for the first time in 70+ years

KCIX in Canberra, AU opens its operating day. (2015)
Looks like the procession is from a State Opening of Parliament.
Was this in Ottawa or London?
@@gregsells8549 London. Unless it was the Canadian Parliament, then it would be in Ottawa.
I'm pretty sure that it is either the State Opening of Parliament from 1960 or 1966 (I could be wrong).
@@mamacass757 From 1960 State Opening of Parliament. Full video (produced by Pathe) is available on TH-cam.
O Canada not Eres tu by Mocedades from the represented Spain in the 1973 Eurovision song contest held in Luxembourg
I think that CKY may have been the first TV station to use the Michael Mills Productions O Canada for their sign on/sign off.
Love the music from 5:00 onwards to the end
Great version of O Canada
This should have used the 1979 "With Glowing Hearts" O Canada Film, like CJOH
Everybody else did! lol That's why CKY went with a little sumthin different!!
@@tomhallick419 i know I'm replying 7 months later, but yeah now i realize how old that painting o canada film is... i thought it was made in the 90s when almost everyone used it
Yeah, it was used on CBC/Radio-Canada O&O's during the '90s. This is the first evidence I have of it being used as early as 1983.
Interesting animation for "O, Canada."
September 25 , 2016
Does anybody know the sign-off music for this one?
O Canada - Vic Vogel
Rev. Eleanor Geib at the beginning.
This station has Manitoba's most-popular newscast...and can also be seen in northwestern Ontario cities like Kenora, Dryden and Fort Frances!

Why did they need to inform the viewers of the station's frequencies back then? It was not like the viewers were gonna care of those things.
