Answer 1

The Canadian Broadcasting Corporation was intially founded on November 2, 1936. However, it was not until 1952 that television broadcasts began with the inauguration of TV Stations located in Montreal and Toronto. The first affiliate TV Station launched a year later in Sudbury, Ontario. One of the first and most popular broadcast to be transited by the network were NHL hockey games under a show called "Hockey Night in Canada".

The first television slogan came more than a decade later, in 1966, with the network deciding to publish "Television is CBC".
