OTTAWA Every television story has a beginning.   CTV Ottawa’s starts at the corner of Bayswater Avenue and Somerset Street, where a broadcasting dream was born. It was March 12, 1961.  The station’s opening was hardly an extravagant affair.  Owner Ernie Bushnell taped a handmade sign to a door facing the street, proclaiming CJOH TV Channel 13 open for business.  The space was cramped and overflowing with people, but it was temporary.  Bushnell and his staff would get their new station on the air from the Bayswater location, until completion of a new state-of-the-art building at 1500 Merivale Rd. Future media stars such as the late Peter Jennings, of ABC’s World News Tonight, would launch his career from Channel 13.  And as technicians and staff unpacked equipment, studios, and offices, they were, unknowingly, unpacking a six decade-long legacy.
