(101142236 Saskatchewan) for authority to acquire, as part of a corporate reorganization, the assets of the English-language radio programming undertakings CHAB, CILG-FM and CJAW-FM Moose Jaw from Golden West Broadcasting Ltd.

The Commission did not receive any interventions in connection with this application. |

As a result of the transaction, 101142236 Saskatchewan will become the licensee of these undertakings. |
