Template for Talk page

Talk pages for articles related to the project should have the {{WikiProject Canada|tvshow=yes}} template added. It can be added with the text: 

{{WikiProject Canada
  |class=
  |importance=
  |tvshow=yes
}}

Most pages still use the {{Canadian TV shows project}} template, which does not include the article in the parent project WikiProject Canada.
