The story of Global TV Lethbridge is in fact the story of television broadcasting in Southern Alberta. CJLH TV as it was known then was the first TV station on the air south of Calgary, and it remains first in the hearts of many to this day.
It was November 20th, 1955 when the power switch was thrown, and Channel 7 – CJLH TV, a network affiliate of the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation was officially on the air. Over the course of the next 50 years the station has assumed many changes in call letters. From CJLH, we became CJOC, then CFAC, next was 2&7 Lethbridge, CISA, then Global Television.
