Consistent with Decision CRTC 90-398 dated 26 April 1990, the licensee is relieved, by condition of licence of the requirement of paragraph 22(1)(a) of the regulations to distribute, at Lac-Humqui, local services CIVB-TV (SRTQ) and CFER-TV (TVA) Rimouski in view of the poor reception quality of these signals, as confirmed by the Department of Industry. Instead, the licensee proposes to distribute the programming of CIVM-TV (SRTQ) Montréal, received via satellite and CHAU-TV-1 (TVA) Sainte-Marguerite-Marie, a priority signal.
