No other Wikipedia article on TV stations has this sort of transmitter site breakout; it appears most of the others were phased out when several large Canadian TV stations turned off many of these, which CHAN did not. The list is sorely out of date and contains many transmitters in rural areas whose status will be hard to verify. Searching all of the more than 80 records against REC's Canada database, 16 are no longer licensed. A better move would be to add any transmitters converted to digital to the CHAN-DT main article which already has a partial list of transmitters—some of which aren't even listed here.

- Delete per nom. Indeed, a lot of these are out of service and/or simply unverifiable, and the idea of spinning out "list of [station] transmitters" as a separate article topic from "[station]" was deprecated a long, long time ago. And still to this day, the only "source" being explicitly cited here is "Nelson Media", a site that I certainly remember, but which went defunct more than a decade ago and has never been revived. There's no pressing need to keep this if so much of the content is this poorly verifiable, when we have the capacity to retain the verifiable information in the station's main article.
