Application by CHUM LIMITED to amend the licences of CFPL-TV, CHWI-TV, CKNX-TV, CKVR-TV and CHRO-TV. |
|
|
The licensee proposes to delete the condition of licence relating to Canadian programming expenditures as set out in the appendix to Decision CRTC 99-425 (condition of licence #1) for CFPL-TV, CHWI-TV, CKNX-TV and in the appendix to Decision CRTC 97-527 (condition of licence #1) for CHRO-TV. |
|
|
The Commission notes that in the case of CKVR-TV, although the Canadian programming expenditures were set as an expectation in Decision CRTC 95-103, CHUM Limited is seeking to delete that expectation as follows: |
|
|
The expectation for CKVR-TV and condition of licence #1 for the other stations would be replaced by the following condition of licence relating to priority programming: |
|
|
1.a) Effective 1 September 2001, the licensee shall broadcast, at a minimum, in each broadcast year, an average of 8 hours per week of Canadian programs in the priority program categories between 7 p.m. and 11 p.m. |
|
|
For the purpose of this condition of licence, the priority program categories are as follows: Canadian drama programs (category 7); Canadian music and dance (category 8a); variety programs (category 9); Canadian long-form documentaries (category 2b); Canadian regionally-produced programs in all categories other than News and information (categories 1, 2 and 3) and Sports (category 6); and Canadian entertainment magazine programs. |
|
|
b) For the purpose of fulfilling the above-noted condition, the licensee may claim the new dramatic programming credit set out in Public Notice 1999-205, as may be amended from time to time. |
|
|
The licensee is not entitled to claim the dramatic programming credit set out in the appendix to Public Notice CRTC 1984-94 and appendices I and II to Public Notice CRTC 2000-42. |
|
|
This application is filed in order to meet the commitment set out in paragraph no. 48 of Decision CRTC 2000-219 wherein its application for a new television station at Victoria, B.C. was approved. |

2. |
Ottawa, Ontario |
|
Application by ROGERS OTTAWA LIMITED/ LIMITÉE ("Rogers") to amend the licence of its cable system serving Ottawa during the Jerry Lewis Labour Day Telethon. |
|
|
The requested amendment would allow the system to interrupt the carriage of the telethon on the originating U.S. station WHEC (NBC) Rochester, New York, in order to broadcast locally-produced segments of the telethon. |
|
|
A condition of licence would be required to relieve Rogers from the requirement of section 7(a) of the Broadcasting Distribution Regulations concerning the altering or curtailing of a signal. |
|
|
Rogers also requests authority to distribute the signal of WHEC, with the locally-produced segments, on its community channel, for the duration of the telethon. Approval of this request would require a condition of licence. |
|
|
The telethon usually airs for a 22-hour period during the Labour Day weekend. Rogers is requesting approval to carry the Telethon in this manner over the next five years. |
