1. Across Canada
Application No. 2007-0791-1
  Persona Communications Corp. (Persona), on behalf of itself and Bragg Communications Incorporated (Bragg), filed two applications that would authorize 4402511 Canada Inc. (4402511 Canada), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Bragg, to acquire ownership and control of Persona and its wholly-owned subsidiary Northern Cablevision Ltd. (Northern). One application is seeking authority to transfer the shares and effective control of Persona to 4402511 Canada and a second one is seeking authority to transfer the effective control of Persona's wholly-owned subsidiary, Northern, to 4402511 Canada.
  Persona is the licensee of cable distribution undertakings in Sudbury and Timmins, Ontario, Marystown, Newfoundland and Labrador and Delta and Sechelt/Gibsons, British Columbia, and of a radiocommunication distribution undertaking in Tumbler Ridge, British Columbia. 4402511 Canada is committed to operate both undertakings under the same terms and conditions as those in effect under their current respective licences. Persona also owns some 600 Class 2 and Class 3 broadcasting distribution undertakings across seven provinces.
  Northern is the licensee of a cable distribution undertaking in Grande Prairie, Alberta. 4402511 Canada is committed to operate that undertaking under the same terms and conditions as those in effect under the current licence.
  The Commission is consequently inviting comments on the particulars of these applications, as well as on the potential effects that approval of these applications would have on the broadcasting industry as a whole.
