Licence renewal
Following Public Notice CRTC 1993-136 dated 5 October 1993 and Decisions CRTC 94-609, 95-65 and 95-632, the Commission renews the licence held by Grand Lake T.V. Limited for the radiocommunication distribution undertaking serving Jemseg, from 1 January 1996 to 31 August 2001, subject to the conditions in effect under the current licence, as well as to those conditions specified in this decision and in the licence to be issued.
The licensee is authorized to distribute, in encrypted mode, the following programming services:
Source Channel/canal Power/Puissance

CITV-TV (IND) Edmonton 15 20
CHCH-TV (IND) Hamilton 21 20

The Commission notes that the licensee had proposed to continue to distribute WJBK-TV Detroit, Michigan. However, this station has been replaced, as a CBS affiliate, by WTOL-TV (CBS) Toledo, Ohio, on the "Revised Lists of Eligible Satellite Services" (Public Notice CRTC 1995-8).
In order not to jeopardize the financial viability of neighbouring subscription-based systems, it is a condition of licence that the licensee shall not solicit or accept a subscription from, or make available equipment to decode its signals for use by, any person resident inside or outside of the area encompassed by the contours approved for the licensee by the Commission, when that person is resident
a) within the authorized service area of any cable distribution undertaking licensed now or in the future, or
b) within the area encompassed by the contours approved by the Commission for any other subscription-based broadcasting undertaking licensed now or in the future,
unless the prior written consent of the applicant or licensee of the other undertaking or the prior approval of the Commission has been obtained or, in the case of a person residing inside the approved contours, that person had subscribed to the licensee's subscription television service prior to the licensing of the other undertaking.
In Public Notice CRTC 1992-59 dated 1 September 1992 and entitled "Implementation of an Employment Equity Policy", the Commission announced that the employment equity practices of broadcasters would be subject to examination by the Commission. In this regard, the Commission encourages the licensee to consider employment equity issues in its hiring practices and in all other aspects of its management of human resources.
