The Preview Channel

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

I found results for both companies but not for this joint venture and I'm not entirely convinced it existed although it is common for there to be few results therefore I want comments. Calling and. SwisterTwister  talk  21:41, 20 September 2015 (UTC)

 * This did exist, for whatever that's worth — on a ProQuest search, I found one isolated listing of it in an article about Ottawa's cable lineup being revised in 1988 (channel 18 west of Bank Street and channel 33 east, in the unlikely event that anybody cares.) But it clearly wasn't notable in any substantive way — out of 71 hits for the phrase "preview channel", that was the only one that was the proper name of a specific channel rather than a generic noun for the concept of television "preview channels", and that's in a database that provides comprehensive access to all of Canada's major market daily newspapers. So there's just no real substance here beyond "this is a thing that existed", and no reliable source coverage by which any more substance could be added. Delete.
