Global News Morning (previously known as Morning News and the Saturday Morning News or the Sunday Morning News on Saturdays and Sundays respectively and the Early Morning News from 5-6 AM) is the name of local morning newscasts airing on Global Television Network's owned-and-operated stations (O&Os) in British Columbia, Calgary, Edmonton, Saskatoon, Regina, Winnipeg, Toronto, Kingston, Peterborough, Montreal, and Halifax with each station producing its own edition of the program. In Ontario, the program was branded The Morning Show, with local variations being produced on Global Toronto, CKWS Kingston, and CHEX Peterborough, before they too adopted the Global News Morning branding. As part of Shaw Communications' benefit package for acquiring Global and other specialty channels from the bankrupt Canwest, Global O&Os in Toronto, Winnipeg, Regina, Saskatoon, Montreal, and the Maritimes would each launch morning shows for their respective markets. As of January 28, 2013, this promise has been fulfilled by Shaw Media. On April 11, 2016, Global rebranded its local news programs. Morning News, as well as Sunday/Saturday Morning News and Early Morning News are now all known as Global News Morning. In June 2018, Global News launched a new "L-frame" news format for their morning programs nationwide. The L-frame, which is similar to that on some 24-hour news channels such as CP24 and Global's Sister network, Global News: BC1, provides constant access to weather, traffic, business, and news headlines throughout the whole show. It launched across the network on June 5, 2018. The latest editions of Global News Morning to launch were those on Global Kingston (formerly CKWS) and Global Peterborough (formerly CHEX). Originally branded as The Morning Show, these programs follow a similar format to other Global News Morning shows east of Alberta, with national and international news being inserted from Global Toronto.
