Hi Canada's time signal is CHU http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CHU_(radio_station) They are on 3.33 7.85 and 14.67 MHz. Good for time, traditionally not so good for frequency. That may have changed recently.

They also transmit on 2.5 and 20 MHz. They transmit AM voice along with various beeps and stuff. And if you are in Europe you could take advantage from the Russian stations RWN, located at 4,996 kHz, 9,996 kHz and 14,996 kHz. They alternate periods with one-second clicks with periods of silence, with periods with 1/10th of a second clicks. And depending on the hour and the propagation maybe you are able to receive one or another or all three of them. They have the customary Caesium precision, accuracy and stability. 73 Alberto I2PHD
