Canadians are watching less television and Albertans watch the least of all.

A recent report from the federal government said the time the average Canadian spends in front of the television has fallen almost one hour during the past decade to 22.8 hours.

Albertans averaged 20.3 hours per week, including 1.6 watching videotapes.

Women over 60 watch the most television. Men between the ages of 18 and 24 watch the least – an average 14.4 hours per week.
