Public Notice CRTC 2000-76
dated 1 June 2000
Licence renewal for CKKW

The Commission renews the broadcasting licence for CKKW Kitchener, from 1 September 2000 to 31 August 2003, subject to the conditions specified in this decision and in the licence to be issued.

2.

The Commission has granted a licence term that is less than the maximum of seven years permitted by the Broadcasting Act. This will allow the next licence renewal of this radio station to be considered in accordance with the Commission’s regional plan. It does not reflect any concern regarding the licensee’s performance.

Consistent with Decision CRTC 99-49, the licence is subject to the following condition:

The licensee shall, as an exception to the percentage of Canadian musical selections set out in sections 2.2(8) and 2.2(9) of the Radio Regulations, 1986 (the regulations),

(a) in any broadcast week where at least 90% of musical selections from content category 2 that it broadcasts are selections released before 1 January 1981:

(i) in that broadcast week, devote 30% or more of its musical selections from content category 2 to Canadian selections broadcast in their entirety; and

(ii) between 6 a.m. and 6 p.m., in the period beginning on Monday of that week and ending on Friday of the same broadcast week, devote 30% or more of its musical selections from content category 2 to Canadian selections broadcast in their entirety.

For purposes of this condition, the terms "broadcast week", "content category" and "musical selection" shall have the meaning set out in section 2 of the Regulations.

4.

The Commission reminds the licensee that it must specify, on music lists provided to the Commission, the year of release for all musical selections broadcast.

5.

The Commission notes that this licensee is subject to the Employment Equity Act that came into effect on 24 October 1996 and therefore files reports concerning employment equity with Human Resources Development Canada.
