Canada Tonight

Canada Tonight is a Canadian television newscast which aired on stations owned by Western International Communications (WIC) from 1993 to 2001.

[5] On January 31, 1994, CHCH retooled its evening news lineup, which directly affected Canada Tonight; the program moved to 6:30 p.m. and was cut back to 30 minutes.

Beginning in 1996, the same music package heard on BCTV's local newscasts replaced the separate themes used by Canada Tonight.

On the Friday before the NFL's Super Bowl in the United States, it also previewed some of the advertisements that could not be seen in Canada through cable or satellite distribution due to simultaneous substitution regulations.

Canada Tonight concluded its run on August 31, 2001, and was replaced on September 3[9] by Global National, the network's new flagship news program hosted by journalist Kevin Newman.
