For the past few months I've been doing extensive research through old TV Guides plus whatever information is available online to come up with a complete list of Canadian game shows. There are other lists online but they are missing a lot of shows.
This is just traditional game shows and doesn't include "reality-type" competitions. I'm still trying to find a few air dates here and there but for some shows - especially the early ones - it's next to impossible to gain more information about them. The air dates include original runs only (with intended repeats within those runs), but doesn't include off-network repeats after production ended.
Presented here are two lists - chronological and alphabetical. If you'd prefer alphabetical, scroll down the page about half way and the same info is listed in that format.

This is what I hope is now a complete list. Comments are welcome if anyone has any :)

You may want to specify that this a list of all English Language game shows. The French-Canadian language game shows is a whole different animal if you don't know French nor have any guides that cover primarily Quebec channels as they have their own stable of shows.
Otherwise, great work on the English shows, Ian!

Thank you for the compliment and great point. Yes, it is English-language shows only. I'm not that interested in the French shows and don't have much info about them - nor do I understand the language!

That explains why one of my favorites is missing, but nicely done Ian.
