CHQI-FM Niagara-on-the-Lake – Acquisition of assets

1.

The Commission approves the application by Luciano Butera, on behalf of a corporation to be incorporated, for authority to acquire from Mrs. Jeannine Dancy the assets of the tourist radio programming undertaking CHQI-FM Niagara-on-the-Lake and for a new broadcasting licence to continue the operation of the undertaking under the same terms and conditions as those in effect under the current licence. The Commission received one opposing intervention that did not directly address the application. The intervention is available on the Commission's website at www.crtc.gc.ca under "Public Proceedings."

2.

Mr. Butera will be the sole shareholder and director of the corporation to be incorporated.

3.

The value of the transaction, based on the terms of the Purchase Sale Agreement, is $48,000. The Commission does not normally require benefits in transactions involving tourist information stations. Therefore, the payment of tangible benefits will not be required for CHQI-FM.

4.

The licence for CHQI-FM will expire on 31 August 2012, the current expiry date, and will be subject to the terms and conditions set out in the appendix to this decision.
  Secretary General
  This decision is to be appended to the licence. It is available in alternative format upon request and may also be examined in PDF format or in HTML at the following Internet site: http://www.crtc.gc.ca.
