Television

Prince Albert was previously served by CKBI-TV channel 5, a private CBC Television outlet; this station would close down in 2002, with its transmitter becoming CBKST-9, a repeater of CBKST Saskatoon, which in turn was a semi-satellite of CBKT Regina. CBKST-9 closed down on July 31, 2012, due to budget cuts handed down by the CBC.[1][2] CBC broadcasts continue to be received in the city via the network's national feed.
