Good old days. Unreal number of transmitters, sadly not operating anymore.

My goal as a kid was often staying up late enough to see the end of the TV. Thanks for the memories!

Both anthems are beautiful. God guard thee Newfoundland. God bless Canada!

This is easily my favorite CBC sign off, this along with other videos have generated an outsiders interest in Newfoundland and Labrador. I used it as a design base for my sign off mock. :)

***** Thanks! It is beautiful. I live in the United States and was not around in 1993. I would have loved to hear it on TV!

Beautiful piece at the end! No singing, just calm, peaceful music.

The music during the color bars is so.majestic.

Love the classy music over the colour bars! Nice touch by the CBC! Our sign-offs in America were usually so harsh with an end-of-the-world quality. The arrangement of "O Canada" was very moving. Thanks for sharing these gems!

Thunderbirds501 Yes, The Perfect Late Night Music

I recently obtained a bunch of videotapes from a relative, some containing several movies that aired as during the old CBC Late Night block around 1990-92. I looked through one such tape and at the end of a movie found part of an EVEN OLDER signoff which was a simple scrolling list of the CBC stations in Newfoundland. A shame that it was taped over with another CBC Late Night movie. Since there were a bunch of old movies recorded from that block, I'm sure that there might be a complete version somewhere.

Correct

now that's what I call a sign off

This is the sign-off for the CBC's St. John's, Newfoundland and Labrador Station CBNT Channel 8, which we never get to see on our Satellite Dish years ago. And it was the only station unaffected by the transition in Network Affiliations serving St. John's, Newfoundland and Labrador, after CJON-TV became an independent station, after it was disaffiliated from CTV Television Network in the Fall of 2002.

I remember that Ode to Newfoundland segment from the late 80s. I wonder when it originated?

Watched alot of Cagney, Flynn, and Bogart movie on CBC back then and before........

This sign-off was probably made years prior because it still has the original CBC logo at the end.

@TheEmeraldMenOfficial

That logo was used until 1992, in monochrome blue. It stands to reason the new logo had not been rolled out completely yet as it would have been new that year.

Can I ask what the piece of music between the Canadian Anthem and the Colour Bars. Thanks in Advance or if alread answered.

That would be the "Ode to Newfoundland", our national anthem when we used to be a country (before becoming a province in 1949).

the name of our province was newfoundland until 1999 and then the provincial government renamed our province to newfoundland and labrador, back then cbc had main operations including master control from st. john's and operations in corner brook at cbyt, happy valley goose bay had cblt for labrador, today the only thing we do in st. john's is provide local news on tv, websites, and local cbc radio, corner brook cbyt and cblt for labrador 100% simulcast cbnt, master control and all other operations are done from toronto, very different from when each station did its own individual operations until september 2000.

Thus you'll find out just how redundant we are on making some improvements. We also noticed that you're getting away with insulting evety country in the world. For us, progress is everything" 🌎
