Decision CRTC 96-758
|
|
Télédistribution Câblouis inc.
|
|
Saint-Honoré (Témiscouata); Cabano, Saint-Louis-du-Ha!Ha!, Notre-Dame-du-Lac and Dégelis, Quebec - 199608246

Acquisition of assets
|
|
Following a Public Hearing in Vancouer beginning on 23 September 1996, the Commission approves the application for authority to acquire the assets of the cable distribution undertaking serving Saint-Honoré (Témiscouata) from Télé-Câble Charlevoix (1977) inc.
|
|
The Commission also approves the licensee's proposal to delete the local head end at Saint-Honoré and to link this undertaking by optical fibre to the head end of the cable distribution undertaking serving Cabano, Saint-Louis-du-Ha!Ha!, Notre-Dame-du-Lac and Dégelis, also owned by the applicant. Therefore, no new licence will be issued with respect to the undertaking serving Saint-Honoré, as had been requested by the applicant. The authority granted herein will become effective upon surrender of the current licence issued to Télé-Câble Charlevoix (1977) inc.
|
|
The price of the transaction is $65,550. Based on the evidence filed with the application, the Commission has no concerns with respect to the availability or the adequacy of the required financing.
|
|
The Commission reminds the purchaser of its longstanding policy that subscribers should not be required to pay higher fees merely because the ownership or control of a cable system has changed hands.
|
|
This decision is to be appended to the licence.
