Decision CRTC 2001-101

 

Ottawa, 22 February 2001

 

Radio McGill
Montréal, Quebec 2000-1297-2

 

Application processed by Public Notices CRTC 2000-112 dated 4 August 2000 and CRTC 2000-112-1 dated 29 September 2000

 

Licence renewal for CKUT-FM

1.

The Commission renews the licence for community-based campus radio programming undertaking CKUT-FM Montréal, from 1 March 2001 to 31 August 2007, subject to conditions specified in the licence to be issued, as also set out in Public Notice CRTC 2000-156.

2.

The renewal of this licence follows the new Campus radio policy. Among other things, the Commission has removed the requirement to submit a Promise of Performance, revised its expectation related to the structure and continuity of the board of directors and removed stipulations regarding the use of "restricted" advertising, in accordance with the new policy (PN 2000-12).

3.

The licensee has proposed to devote 12 hours per week to French-language programming. This is consistent with the significant role played by campus stations in serving the needs of the communities resident within their service areas.

4.

The licensee has committed to meet the new regulatory requirements with respect to the percentage of Canadian musical selections from category 2 (35%) and category 3 (12%) that community and campus radio stations must broadcast each broadcast week.

5.

The Commission expects the licensee to implement the initiatives set out in its plan for Canadian talent development and to give effect to the measures designed to encourage the participation of volunteers.

6.

The Commission acknowledges the interventions received in support of this application.

 

Other matters

7.

The Commission considers that campus radio stations should be particularly sensitive to employment equity issues in order to reflect fully the communities they serve. It encourages the licensee to consider these issues in its hiring practices and in all other aspects of its management of human resources
(see PN 1992-59).
