Editing CITL-DT (section)

==History==
The station first signed on the air on July 28, 1976, and has been a CTV affiliate since its sign-on. CITL, along with their sister station CKSA, were acquired by [[Newcap Broadcasting]] in 2005 from their former owner, Midwest Television.

Prior to the August 31, 2011, digital transition, CITL had rebroadcast transmitters in [[Wainwright, Alberta|Wainwright]], [[Provost, Alberta|Provost]], [[Bonnyville]], [[Meadow Lake, Saskatchewan|Meadow Lake]] and Alcot Trail. The station's main transmitter was required to participate in the digital transition, but Newcap also decided to shut its other transmitters, other than Alcot Trail's, on the same date, though there was no requirement to shut down or convert any of these other transmitters to digital.

The station had attempted to add a rebroadcaster in [[Fort McMurray]] in 2006,<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.crtc.gc.ca/eng/archive/2006/n2006-4.htm#20|title = ARCHIVED - Broadcasting Notice of Public Hearing CRTC 2006-4|date = April 20, 2006}}</ref> but this was subsequently withdrawn. The application had been surprising since a CTV-owned station, [[CFRN-TV]], had already served the area on cable with some separate news programming and commercials since 1990 from CFRN's repeater in [[Ashmont, Alberta|Ashmont]].<ref>{{Cite web |url=http://edmonton.ctv.ca/aboutUs/ |title=CTV Edmonton history |access-date=November 20, 2008 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20081217125938/http://edmonton.ctv.ca/aboutUs/ |archive-date=December 17, 2008 |url-status=dead }}</ref>

CITL along with CKSA were two of the last remaining Canadian stations that continued to sign off overnight, along with [[Omni Television]] stations and others.

On May 13, 2025, Stingray Radio announced that CITL and CKSA had ceased operations effective immediately, citing "challenging economic conditions" and "careful consideration of the evolving media landscape and the challenges facing local television broadcasting".<ref>{{Cite web |last=Thiessen |first=Connie |date=May 13, 2025 |title=Stingray shutters Lloydminster TV stations |url=https://broadcastdialogue.com/stingray-shutters-lloydminster-tv-stations/ |access-date=May 16, 2025 |website=Broadcast Dialogue |language=en-CA}}</ref> [[SaskTel]] replaced CITL with Saskatoon's CTV station [[CFQC-DT]].<ref>{{Cite web |date=May 16, 2025 |title=Channel news and previews |url=https://www.sasktel.com/store/browse/Personal/TV/Do-Even-More/Channel-news-and-previews/_/N-8frmjn |archive-url=https://archive.today/20250517040453/https://www.sasktel.com/store/browse/Personal/TV/Do-Even-More/Channel-news-and-previews/_/N-8frmjn |archive-date=May 16, 2025 |access-date=May 16, 2025 |publisher=[[SaskTel]]}}</ref>
