  Montréal Hearing, 2 June 2008
  The Commission will hold the first day of the hearing Monday 2 June 2008 at 9 a.m., at the Hyatt Regency Montréal Hotel, 1255 Jeanne Mance Street, Montréal, Quebec.
  During the hearing in Montréal, the Commission expects TQS inc.

This presentation will be followed by questions by the Commission.
  The Commission will then hear the presentations by interveners from Montréal, Sherbrooke and the Outaouais and Abitibi-Témiscamingue regions who, in their written comments, requested to appear. Given that the Commission will sit only one day in Montréal, some interveners from Montréal and Sherbrooke may be invited to make their presentations in Québec. The Commission will communicate with the interveners prior to the hearing to confirm the location and date of their appearance.
  Québec Hearing, 3 June 2008
  The Commission will resume the hearing Tuesday 3 June 2008, at the Château Laurier Hotel, 1220 Place George-V West, Québec, Quebec.
  During the hearing in Québec, TQS is expected to summarize its presentation of the previous day for the benefit of interveners who were not present in Montréal and then focus on the programming issues, as well as any other issues relating to the Québec, Trois-Rivières and Saguenay regional stations. This presentation will be followed by questions by the Commission.
  The Commission will then hear the presentations by interveners from Québec, Trois-Rivières and Saguenay who, in their written comments, requested to appear. The Commission will communicate with the interveners prior to the hearing to confirm their appearance.
  After these presentations, TQS will have an opportunity to reply to all the interventions filed regarding its applications.
  Finally, the Commission may require the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation to appear in Québec regarding its application to acquire from TQS the assets of the television programming undertakings in Sherbrooke, Trois-Rivières and Saguenay and of the transmitter in St-Fulgence, Quebec.
