CKSA-DT is a Canadian television station, broadcasting in Lloydminster. It is a private affiliate of CBC Television and presently clears virtually all of the CBC network schedule, the only usual exceptions being parts of the late night schedule, as the station signs off each night as soon as possible after 3:00 a.m., then returns to the air with paid programming between 4:30 and 6:00 a.m. The station is part of a twinstick with sister station CITL-DT, the local CTV affiliate.

CKSA's newscasts air during CBC O&Os' standard local news timeslots - from 5:00 to 6:30 p.m. weekdays, with a five-minute late-night update at 11:00 p.m. (following the 60-minute version of The National). There are no weekend newscasts.
