Broadcasting Decision CRTC 2008-167

  Ottawa, 12 August 2008
  Conestoga College Communications Corporation
 Kitchener/Paris, Ontario
  Application 2008-0127-6, received 24 January 2008
Broadcasting Public Notice CRTC 2008-49
28 May 2008
 

CJIQ-FM Kitchener/Paris - Licence renewal

1.

The Commission renews the broadcasting licence for the instructional campus radio programming undertaking CJIQ-FM Kitchener/Paris from 1 September 2008 to 31 August 2015. The licence will be subject to the conditions specified therein as well as to the conditions set out in the appendix to this decision.

2.

The licensee has proposed to increase its third-language programming from 2 hours per week (directed to 2 ethnic groups in 2 different languages) to 8 hours per week (directed to 3 ethnic groups in 3 different languages). This is consistent with the significant role played by campus stations in serving the needs of the minority communities within their service areas.

3.

The Commission reminds the licensee that it is required to meet the regulatory minimum with respect to the percentage of musical selections drawn from category 2 (Popular Music) that must be Canadian (35%), as announced in Broadcasting Public Notice 2008-67.

4.

The Commission did not receive any interventions with respect to this application.

Encouragement

 

Employment equity

  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.
