CFEG-TV , UHF analog channel 19 , is a low-power Christian television station licensed to Abbotsford , British Columbia , Canada . The station is owned by the Clearbrook Mennonite Brethren Church . It is presently not carried on any cable providers . The station was created mainly because many senior citizens , who make up a large portion of the church 's congregation , are unable to attend services in person , thus a broadcast television station would give them the opportunity to watch those services on television . Clearbrook Mennonite Brethren Church was granted a licence by the Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission ( CRTC ) to operate a low-power UHF television transmitter in the spring of 1999 . After the station and its transmitter were set up and tested , CFEG went on the air for the first time in July 2000 . The station 's antenna is mounted on the roof of the church . CFEG 's programming consists of the church 's English and German Sunday morning and evening services as well as its Wednesday morning German Bible study . Other programs which keep with the church 's mission may be added in the future , although they must be locally produced , since the station is not allowed to air programs produced by other stations . All of CFEG 's operating costs are paid for by the church . As part of the conditions of its licence , the station is not permitted to air advertising .
An independent station is a type of television station broadcasting in the United States or Canada that is not affiliated with any broadcast television network ; most commonly , these stations carry a mix of syndicated , brokered and in some cases , local programming to fill time periods when network programs typically would air . Stations that are affiliated with networks such as The CW , MyNetworkTV or to a lesser degree , even Fox may be considered to be quasi-independent stations as these networks mainly provide programming during primetime , with limited to no network-supplied content in other time periods . Independent radio is a similar concept with regards to community radio stations , although with a slightly different meaning ( as many non-indie commercial broadcasting radio stations produce the vast majority of their own programming , perhaps retaining only a nominal affiliation with a radio network for news updates or syndicated radio programming ) .

With an estimated population of 5.1 million as of 2019 [ update ] , it is Canada 's third-most populous province . The first British settlement in the area was Fort Victoria , established in 1843 , which gave rise to the City of Victoria , at first the capital of the separate Colony of Vancouver Island . Subsequently , on the mainland , the Colony of British Columbia ( 1858-1866 ) was founded by Richard Clement Moody and the Royal Engineers , Columbia Detachment , in response to the Fraser Canyon Gold Rush . Moody was Chief Commissioner of Lands and Works for the Colony and the first Lieutenant Governor of British Columbia : he was hand-picked by the Colonial Office in London to transform British Columbia into the British Empire 's bulwark in the farthest west , and to found a second England on the shores of the Pacific . Moody selected the site for and founded the original capital of British Columbia , New Westminster , established the Cariboo Road and Stanley Park , and designed the first version of the Coat of arms of British Columbia . Port Moody is named after him . In 1866 , Vancouver Island became part of the colony of British Columbia , and Victoria became the united colony 's capital . In 1871 , British Columbia became the sixth province of Canada . Its Latin motto is Splendor sine occasu ( Splendour without Diminishment ) .

The network consists of six owned-and-operated ( O & O ) television stations located in the metropolitan areas of Toronto , Montreal , Winnipeg , Calgary , Edmonton , and Vancouver , a cable-only service that serves the province of Saskatchewan , and three independently owned affiliates serving smaller cities in Alberta and British Columbia . The Citytv brand 's name originates from its flagship station , CITY-TV in Toronto , a station which became known for an intensely local format based on newscasts aimed at younger viewers , nightly movies , and music and cultural programming . The Citytv brand first expanded with CHUM Limited 's acquisition of former Global O & O CKVU-TV in Vancouver , followed by its purchase of Craig Media 's stations and the re-branding of its A-Channel system in Central Canada as Citytv in August 2005 . CHUM Limited was acquired by CTVglobemedia ( now Bell Media ) in 2007 ; to comply with Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission ( CRTC ) ownership limits , the Citytv stations were sold to Rogers . The network grew through further affiliations with three Jim Pattison Group-owned stations , along with Rogers ' acquisition of the cable-only Saskatchewan Communications Network and Montreal 's CJNT-DT . While patterned after the original station in Toronto , since the 2000s , and particularly since its acquisition by Rogers , Citytv has moved towards a series-based primetime schedule much like its competitors , albeit one still focused on younger demographics .

Atypically for Canada , only about half of the population lives in urban areas , mostly in Greater Moncton , Greater Saint John and the capital Fredericton . Unlike the other Maritime provinces , New Brunswick 's terrain is mostly forested uplands , with much of the land further from the coast , giving it a harsher climate . New Brunswick is 83% forested and less densely-populated than the rest of the Maritimes . Being relatively close to Europe , New Brunswick was among the first places in North America to be explored and settled by Europeans , starting with the French in the early 1600s , who displaced the indigenous Mi'kmaq , Maliseet , and the Passamaquoddy peoples . The French settlers were later displaced when the area became part of the British Empire . In 1784 , after an influx of refugees from the American Revolutionary War , the province was partitioned from Nova Scotia . In 1785 Saint John became Canada 's first incorporated city . The province prospered in the early 1800s and the population grew rapidly , reaching about a quarter of a million by mid-century .

As of July 2016 the city has a population of 531,902 , and the metropolitan area had a population of 800,296 . It is the eleventh largest city and the seventh largest metropolitan area in Canada . The Algonquian people had originally named the area Kébec , an Algonquin [ note 1 ] word meaning where the river narrows , because the Saint Lawrence River narrows proximate to the promontory of Quebec and its Cape Diamant . Explorer Samuel de Champlain founded a French settlement here in 1608 , and adopted the Algonquin name . Quebec City is one of the oldest European cities in North America . The ramparts surrounding Old Quebec ( Vieux-Québec ) are the only fortified city walls remaining in the Americas north of Mexico . This area was declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO in 1985 as the Historic District of Old Québec . The city 's landmarks include the Château Frontenac hotel that dominates the skyline and the Citadelle of Quebec , an intact fortress that forms the centrepiece of the ramparts surrounding the old city and includes a secondary royal residence . The National Assembly of Quebec ( provincial legislature ) , the Musée national des beaux-arts du Québec ( National Museum of Fine Arts of Quebec ) , and the Musée de la civilisation ( Museum of Civilization ) are found within or near Vieux-Québec .
Quebec ( /k ( w ) ɪˈbɛk/ ( listen ) ; French : Québec [ kebɛk ] ( listen ) ) is one of the thirteen provinces and territories of Canada . It is bordered to the west by the province of Ontario and the bodies of water James Bay and Hudson Bay ; to the north by Hudson Strait and Ungava Bay ; to the east by the Gulf of Saint Lawrence and the province of Newfoundland and Labrador ; and to the south by the province of New Brunswick and the U.S. states of Maine , New Hampshire , Vermont , and New York . It also shares maritime borders with Nunavut , Prince Edward Island , and Nova Scotia . Quebec is Canada 's largest province by area and its second-largest administrative division ; only the territory of Nunavut is larger . It is historically and politically considered to be part of Central Canada ( with Ontario ) . Quebec is the second-most populous province of Canada , after Ontario . It is the only one to have a predominantly French-speaking population , with French as the sole provincial official language . Most inhabitants live in urban areas near the Saint Lawrence River between Montreal and Quebec City , the capital . Approximately half of Quebec residents live in the Greater Montreal Area , including the Island of Montreal . English-speaking communities and English-language institutions are concentrated in the west of the island of Montreal but are also significantly present in the Outaouais , Eastern Townships , and Gaspé regions . The Nord-du-Québec region , occupying the northern half of the province , is sparsely populated and inhabited primarily by Aboriginal peoples . The climate around the major cities is four-seasons continental with cold and snowy winters combined with warm to hot humid summers , but farther north long winter seasons dominate and as a result the northern areas of the province are marked by tundra conditions .

The peninsula that makes up Nova Scotia 's mainland is connected to the rest of North America by the Isthmus of Chignecto , on which the province 's land border with New Brunswick is located . The province borders the Bay of Fundy to the northwest and the Atlantic Ocean to the south and east , and is separated from Prince Edward Island and the island of Newfoundland by the Northumberland and Cabot straits , respectively . The land that comprises what is now Nova Scotia has been inhabited by the indigenous Miꞌkmaq people for thousands of years . France 's first settlement in North America , Port-Royal , was established in 1605 and intermittently served in various locations as the capital of the French colony of Acadia for over a hundred years . The Fortress of Louisbourg was a key focus point in the struggle between the British and French for control of the area , changing hands numerous times in the until France relinquished its claims with the Treaty of Paris in 1763 . During the American Revolutionary War , thousands of Loyalists settled in Nova Scotia . In 1848 , Nova Scotia became the first British colony to achieve responsible government , and it federated in July 1867 with New Brunswick and the Province of Canada ( now Ontario and Quebec ) to form what is now the country of Canada . Nova Scotia 's capital and largest city is Halifax , which is today home to about 45 per cent of the province 's population , is the thirteenth-largest census metropolitan area in Canada , the largest city in Atlantic Canada , and Canadas second largest coastal city ( after Vancouver ) .

The Sudbury region was inhabited by the Ojibwe people of the Algonquin group for thousands of years prior to the founding of Sudbury following the discovery of nickel ore in 1883 during the construction of the transcontinental railway . Greater Sudbury was formed in 2001 by merging the cities and towns of the former Regional Municipality of Sudbury with several previously unincorporated townships . Being located inland , the local climate is extremely seasonal with average January lows of around −18 °C ( 0 °F ) and average July highs of 25 °C ( 77 °F ) . The population resides in an urban core and many smaller communities scattered around 330 lakes and among hills of rock blackened by historical smelting activity . Sudbury was once a major lumber centre and a world leader in nickel mining . Mining and related industries dominated the economy for much of the 20th century . The two major mining companies which shaped the history of Sudbury were Inco , now Vale Limited , which employed more than 25% of the population by the 1970s , and Falconbridge , now Glencore . Sudbury has since expanded from its resource-based economy to emerge as the major retail , economic , health and educational centre for Northeastern Ontario .

Isle Madame is a Canadian island located off the southeastern corner of Cape Breton Island in Nova Scotia . The island was settled by France as part of its colony of Île-Royale ( present-day Cape Breton Island ) . It is presumed to have been named for Madame de Maintenon , the second wife of France 's King Louis XIV . After the fall of Louisbourg in 1758 , 4,000 inhabitants were deported . However , a group of ten Acadian families from Port-Toulouse fled to this Isle Madame where their descendants still live today . Following the Seven Years ' War , Île-Royale and its constituent territories such as Isle Madame , reverted to British control . Some Acadian families also made their way from Massachusetts to Isle Madame in 1766 . Measuring 16 km long and 11 km wide , giving approximately 45 km2 , Isle Madame is jurisdictionally part of Richmond County and is separated from Cape Breton Island by a narrow strait named Lennox Passage . Initially , the strait was crossed by ferries . The first swing bridge crossing Lennox Passage to connect with Isle Madame was constructed beginning in 1916 , and opened in 1919 . The Grandique Ferry service also crossed the passage between Martinique and Louisdale . In 1970 , following the grounding and subsequent breakup of the Liberian tanker Arrow in Chedabucto Bay spilling her cargo of heavy bunker C oil , the Government of Nova Scotia built a causeway between Burnt Point and Burnt Island to prevent the spilled oil from further damaging the fishing area of the Passage .
