In addition to US broadcasters, the advent of cable in the Saskatoon market saw the launch of a community access channel initially branded as Telecable Ten, and from the early 1980s until its closure the Prince Albert station CKBI was also carried in the Saskatoon market via cable.
US superstations, as well as (sustainable) Canadian and US-based cable network programming began to emerge in the 1990s and continues to be available via Shaw or satellite providers.
On this cable system, American network programming is received from affiliates in Boston, Massachusetts, Minneapolis, Minnesota and Seattle, Washington.
In 1978-1979, Saskatoon was serviced by CPN, a Saskatchewan-based cable system and competitor to Telecable that provided several first-generation specialty channels (including HBO) for about two years before folding.
Like other Canadian centres, Saskatoon viewers also received C Channel and other premium cable networks that survived for a short time in 1983.
