 The Canadian edition was published by McMurray Publishing, a subsidiary of Triangle Publications, a U.S.-based firm owned by Walter H. Annenberg, who acquired several local television listings magazines in 1953 to form the nucleus for the national edition of "TV Guide" (this was acknowledged in a notice featured in the "Saturday" listings, "This Canadian magazine is distributed, assembled and prepared by McMurray Publishing Company, Ltd...").At least eleven editions were available across Canada, which featured localized television listings for the country's major cities.During this time Richard Allen Northorp brought the digest-sized guide to “hot press” in Canada.
