Decision CRTC 95-888
|
Various locations across Canada
|
Licence amendments related to station format
|
In Public Notice CRTC 1995-162 dated 29 September 1995, the Commission announced applications submitted by various licensees in response to the Commission's announcement in Public Notice CRTC 1995-60 entitled "A Review of Certain Matters Concerning Radio". In that public notice, the Commission announced that it would be prepared to revise the format system by relieving the licensees of commercial FM stations of their respective Promise of Performance commitments to operate their stations in Group I "Pop, Rock, and Dance" or Group II "Country". At the same time, the Commission announced that it would retain a "Specialty" format.
|
The Commission approves all of the applications by the licensees of the commercial FM stations listed in the appendix to this decision, to amend their licences in order to be relieved of the current commitments set out in their Promises of Performance to operate in a Group I or Group II format. Accordingly, the Commission replaces those commitments by the following condition:
|
It is a condition of licence that this station not be operated within the Specialty format as defined in Public Notice CRTC 1995-60, or as amended from time to time by the Commission.
|
The Commission notes that Native Communication Inc. has withdrawn its application (952293900) and, accordingly, no further action is required with respect to that application.
|
The Commission acknowledges and has considered the intervention received with respect to the application by Pelmorex Radio Inc. for CJMX-FM Sudbury. The Commission notes that approval of this application will simply allow the station to respond to the changing musical tastes of its audience in the future and will not affect the level and quality of local service.
