(Country), from 1 September 1991 to 31 August 1996. The operation of this undertaking is regulated pursuant to Parts I and III of the Cable Television Regulations, 1986 (the regulations) and the licence will be subject to the conditions specified in this decision and in the licence to be issued.
In addition to the services required or authorized to be distributed pursuant to the applicable sections of the regulations, the licensee is authorized to continue to distribute, at its option, KOMO-TV (ABC) KING-TV (NBC), KIRO-TV (CBS), KCTS-TV (PBS) Seattle, KSTW-TV (IND) and KCPQ-TV (IND) Tacoma, Washington, received via microwave from a head end located at Saltspring Island, so long as these remain the only non-Canadian television signals distributed on the undertaking.
