We'll have more details here as we get them.
UPDATE 1
Lots of Twitter action on this one.
Follow the conversation here. The best tweet has to go to the CTV PR department (see screenshot of retweet below) who I guess had second thoughts and subsequently deleted the tweet from their Twitter feed.
UPDATE 2
Also, the noon and 5pm news shows are gone as is some weekend news and City News International.
UPDATE 3
CP24 just announced they have expanded their local news coverage
