I had a short stint in traffic back in the day, as well as continuity and sales, production and news, so I saw it all at one time or another.

There would be programs that would air in the mornings and in the afternoons in some markets. Quad tapes would be bicycled across the country (I did that too)

One thing that fascinates me now was between the two main networks (pre cable) they seemed to manage to be able to air almost every major American program. Not saying there aren't any, but I can't remember thinking boy I wish I could see that show.

I do recall in the mid 70s going to friend's houses that had cable and seeing shows that CBC and CTV didn't carry (particularly US game shows), Family Feud comes to mind. But that wasn't a real game breaker.

CHSJ in Saint John NB was an affiliate that often deviated from the CBC sked. NB didn't have a CBC O&O until 1994.

Back to the schedules, a real work of love by that guy and very useful, I downloaded them this aft.
