(Windsor) | CBWT is a Canadian Broadcasting Corporation television station in Winnipeg, Manitoba. It is the only network CBC station in Manitoba, although Brandon's CKX is a CBC affiliate. Broadcasting for the first time on May 31, 1954, CBWT began as a bilingual station on channel 4. In 1960, the station moved to channel 3 and became English-only, while French programming moved to the newly-launched CBWFT. On November 21, 1964, CBWT and CBWFT traded channels, with CBWT moving to channel 6 and CBWFT moving to channel 3. CBWT is the CBC's flagship station for the Central time zone, airing the main CBC schedule one hour after the CBC stations in the Eastern time zone. This is different from the other Canadian television networks, whose stations in the Eastern and Central time zones air their schedules at the same time. Country Canada, CountryWide and a local edition of Canada Now (formerly called 24 Hours before 2000) are produced out of CBWT. In addition The National has an investigative unit based at the station. Previous programs produced at CBWT include Fred Penner's Place, It's A Living, and Disclosure. Disclosure was cancelled in 2003. Peter Mansbridge, anchor of The National, began his career at CBWT.
