EDUCATIONAL TELEVISION SASKATCHEWAN (ETV) (1978)?
Channel Profile
Canada has a number of privately-owned Educational Television (ETV) channels.
Anecdotal evidence indicates that a brief run of Jon Pertwee stories aired on one of the ETV stations in the province of Saskatchewan, some time circa 1978 (which is around the same time as CKVU and TVO and CPN (see below).

CPN (SASKATCHEWAN) (1978-79)
Channel Profile
The COOPERATIVE PROGRAMMING NETWORK (CPN) was a closed circuit pay television service established in late 1977, and operated by a federation of cooperatives in Regina, Saskatoon and Moose Jaw, in the Province of Saskatchewan. The service was not licenced by the Canadian federal government. The station experienced severe technical and structural difficulties, and only lasted about 18 months. It went into receivership in late 1978, and its final broadcasts were in late 1979.

The Wikipedia entry for DOCTOR WHO IN AMERICA says: "There were also some local broadcasts of the series outside Ontario: for example, in 1978-79 a Saskatchewan-based pay-cable provider, CPN, aired Doctor Who episodes on its Just for Kids channel."
These would have been Tom Baker stories, and presumably came from the same general package of stories that aired on TVO (and in the United States) around the same time.
We have not been able to find any broadcast details for Doctor Who on this station.
