Breakfast Television  Breakfast Television (BT) is the branding used for morning shows broadcast by stations of Rogers Media's television network Citytv. As of September 2019, versions of "BT" are broadcast in Toronto, Vancouver, and Calgary; versions used to be broadcast in Winnipeg, Edmonton and Montreal, but have been cancelled and replaced with alternative programming. The version broadcast by the Atlantic Satellite Network (which was owned by Citytv's former parent CHUM Limited, and is now owned by competitor Bell Media) continued to use the brand under licence from Rogers until 2011, when it was re-launched as "CTV Morning Live" upon the service's rebranding as CTV Two Atlantic. On September 5, 2011, each of the local editions of "Breakfast Television" across all of the Citytv owned-and-operated stations began starting a half-hour earlier, running from 5:30–9 a.m. In April 2012, the Winnipeg edition reverted to the 6-9 a.m. runtime. In September 2019, the Montreal version of the program was discontinued, while the Calgary and Vancouver versions were re-launched on September 23, 2019 using a "hybrid" format incorporating segments of national interest from the Toronto version. "Breakfast Television" premiered on September 9, 1989 with co-hosts Ann Rohmer and David Onley, with MuchMusic VJ Steve Anthony broadcasting from a different spot around the area each day. Kevin Frankish handled news updates from the "CityPulse" (later "CityNews") newsroom (he also handled the overnight updates broadcast from the assignment desk that flowed directly into "BT"). From 1995 to 2008, BT was simulcast on then-sister station CKVR in Barrie, with "VRLand News" inserts replacing the "CityPulse"/"CityNews" segments. Co-host Liza Fromer quit her job at "BT" in July 2006, days after the birth of her child. Kevin Frankish has blogged that her departure from the show was "on the absolute best of terms". "BT" has encouraged people to send audition tapes for consideration. During the summer of 2006, a number of CHUM personalities were invited to guest co-host with Kevin Frankish in the search for the next permanent host. The guest hosts included "CityNews" sports anchor Kathryn Humphreys, health specialist Laura DiBattista, consumer specialist Jee-Yun-Lee, former Citytv weather specialist Nalini Sharma, former reporter Melissa Grelo, "etalk" correspondent Tracy Melchor, BT's own Jennifer Valentyne, and Star!'s Dina Pugliese.
