Canada Tonight was a Canadian television newscast, which aired on stations owned by Western International Communications. It was produced out of the studio of BCTV in Vancouver. There were two versions of the newscast; the one seen outside British Columbia was anchored by Tony Parsons, and the one seen in that province was anchored by Bill Good. The BC version, seen only on BCTV, featured more stories related to Vancouver and BC, as well as local weather and CTV's national news reports.
When WIC was acquired by Global Television Network, Canada Tonight replaced Global's First National as that network's nightly newscast for several months in 2001, until the new Global National produced by CHAN-TV debuted on September 3 of that year with Kevin Newman as anchor.
