===CBEFT as rebroadcaster===
From the mid-1980s at the earliest, it was a semi-satellite of [[CBLFT-DT|CBLFT]] in [[Toronto]] as part of the Ontario-Outaouais network. In 1991, as part of cost-cutting measures at the CBC, CBEFT's licence, along with all other Radio-Canada transmitters in Ontario, was merged with that of [[CBOFT-DT|CBOFT]] in [[Ottawa]]. However, CBEFT, along with CBLFT's other former repeaters, carried the split-feed newscast for the rest of Ontario that was produced at CBOFT.

On April 28, 2010, the CRTC relicensed CBLFT as a standalone station, which would again produce a separate newscast for the province of Ontario outside of CBOFT's primary market.<ref>[http://www.crtc.gc.ca/eng/archive/2010/2010-239.htm CRTC Decision 2010-239]</ref> At the same time, CBEFT was relicensed as a rebroadcaster of CBLFT. In recent years, CBEFT relayed CBLFT off a satellite link, which would get disrupted under severe weather conditions, which would cause its equipment to display an error message.
