At least 75% of these local availabilities must be made available for use by licensed Canadian programming services for the promotion of their respective services, the promotion of the community channel and for unpaid Canadian public service announcements. A maximum of 25% of the commercial availabilities may be made available for the promotion of the services and the discretionary programming packages, customer service information, channel realignment, cable FM service and additional cable outlets.
