Editing Telethon (section)

====Canada====
There are no annual national telethons in Canada, although as in the U.S., many local children's hospitals operate regional telethons in collaboration with [[Children's Miracle Network Hospitals]] in early June. In addition, due to the proliferation of [[cable television]] piping in signals from the United States, a number of American telethons, such as the Jerry Lewis MDA Labor Day Telethon, attracted donations from Canada due to being broadcast there.

Notable regional telethons (outside of those produced by Children's Miracle Network) include:
* ''[[Telemiracle]]'' (March) in [[Saskatchewan]] benefiting the [[Kin Canada|Kinsmen]] Foundation and currently seen on [[CTV Television Network|CTV]] stations in Saskatchewan. Since its inception in 1977, Telemiracle has raised over $100 million, including the record $7.1 million in the 2018 edition, held in [[Regina, Saskatchewan|Regina]].
* ''[[Christmas Daddies]]'' (December), benefiting underprivileged children in [[Atlantic Canada]] and broadcast on [[CTV Atlantic]] stations.
* ''[[Show of Hearts]]'' (February) in [[British Columbia]], supporting [[Variety, the Children's Charity]] and seen on [[CHAN-DT]] in [[Vancouver]].
*''[[CTV-Lion's Club Children's Christmas Telethon]]'' (December), buys Christmas presents for underprivileged children in [[Northern Ontario]]. The telethon is broadcast on [[CTV Northern Ontario]] stations and features local musical talent.
