The best part, regardless of what cartoon you were watching, was sitting there at 6am (or whatever the time was) and watching the test pattern waiting for O'Canada.

So true, I used to watch the seconds go by eagerly waiting for the cartoons to start.........long wait when you wake up at 05:30!!!

Man, I must be getting old, I remember one of the schools my brother went to in Gatineau had those huge green sirens on the roof.
