This week in Canadian media history: The birth of CTV Montreal

The Canadian Marconi Company's television station CFCF-12 (Canada's First, Canada's Finest) started broadcasting from Montreal on Jan. 20, 1961, after receiving its English-language television licence. Months later on Oct. 1, CFCF-12 became an affiliate of the CTV Network, which had just launched. Today, the station is known as CTV Montreal.  Image courtesy of Wikimedia Commons…
