Shortly afterward, CKCW opened a rebroadcaster in Charlottetown, making Prince Edward Island the last province to get CTV.On February 26, 1997[1] (with CRTC approval given on August 28, 1997[2]), as part of a group deal, the ATV stations were sold to CTV.Although each station originally produced its own news and local programming, these were progressively cut back from the 1980s onward.As with many regional networks, this creates a balancing act where local stories in one community or province are of little interest in another area of CTV Atlantic's coverage area, and viewers in each province feel the news division focuses too much on either New Brunswick or Nova Scotia, along with a lesser focus on Prince Edward Island.All news programs are produced in 16:9 high definition as of July 13, 2014 at CJCH's Robie Street studio in Halifax.
