Does this mean the picture quality is going to improve. Cause it really sucks when the CKPG news is being broadcast.

I think what it really means is even less local content will be aired on CKPG.

I wonder how many in the PG region receive their broadcast TV over the airwaves rather than cable, satellite, telephone, or internet.

I would think that for those using the more modern systems they would get one or more versions of CITY programming already anyway.
