Following Public Notice CRTC 1995-79 dated 12 May 1995 and Decision CRTC 95-669 dated 30 August 1995, the Commission renews the Class 2 licence held by Shaw Cablesystems (B.C.) Ltd., for the cable distribution undertaking serving Creston, from 1 December 1995 to 31 August 2001.
The licence term granted herein, while less than the maximum of seven years permitted by the Broadcasting Act, will enable the Commission to consider the next licence renewal of this undertaking in accordance with the Commission's regional plan and to better distribute the workload within the Commission. This term is not reflective of any Commission concern regarding the licensee's performance.
The operation of this undertaking is regulated pursuant to Parts I and II of the Cable Television Regulations, 1986 (the regulations) and the licence will be subject to the conditions in effect under the current licence, as well as to those conditions specified 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 distribute, at its option, the programming services of CFCN-TV-5 (CTV), CISA-TV (IND) Lethbridge, CKTN-TV (CTV) Trail, as well as the audio programming service of KMBI-FM Spokane, Washington, received via microwave, as part of the basic service.
The licensee is also authorized to distribute, at its option, the programming service of KAYU-TV (FOX) Spokane, received via microwave, on a discretionary tier.
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.
