Ottawa, 30 November 2010
Various radio programming undertakings
Across Canada
The application numbers are set out in this decision.
Licence renewals
1. The Commission renews the broadcasting licences for the radio programming undertakings set out below, from 1 December 2010[1] to 31 August 2017. The licences will be subject to the conditions of licence set out in the appropriate appendices to this decision.
2. As part of this proceeding, the Commission examined the interventions and replies received with regard to each of the applications. The public record for this proceeding is available on the Commission’s site at www.crtc.gc.ca under “Public Proceedings.”
3. The Association québécoise de l’industrie du disque, du spectacle et de la vidéo (ADISQ) filed a comment regarding the applications by Radio Express inc., Astral Media Radio inc. and Radio Dégelis inc.
4. In its comment, ADISQ deplored the fact that the Commission did not conduct a compliance evaluation on the musical programming of Radio Express Inc., despite this licensee’s extensive history of non-compliance, and only one on the programming of Radio Dégelis inc. and Astral Media Radio Inc. over the previous seven-year licence term. According to ADISQ, one cannot properly evaluate a station’s compliance with its obligations regarding the broadcast of Canadian and French-language musical selections on the basis of one compliance evaluation over an entire licence term.
5. ADISQ further remarked that it was unfortunately unable to obtain all of the information required to ascertain whether the stations had met their obligations with respect to contributions to Canadian content development (CCD) during their previous licence term. According to ADISQ, the music industry must have access to not only the licensees’ CCD contributions statement, but also to the details of the contributions made to the various recipients to ensure that broadcasters fulfil their commitments and that MUSICACTION receives its fair share of contributions.
6. The Commission notes that in Commercial Radio Policy 2006, Broadcasting Public Notice CRTC 2006-158, 15 December 2006, it adopted a basic CCD contribution system based on stations’ revenues. Accordingly, the Commission cannot disclose contributions made by licensees, in whole or in part, because this would make it possible to determine an undertaking’s total revenues according to these figures. However, the Commission notes that, every year, it publishes its Communications Monitoring Report, which contains the consolidated figures for commercial radio revenues. Moreover, the Commission notes that the notice of consultation that it issues upon receipt of an application refers to any apparent non-compliance by a licensee.
7. The Commission reminds licensees that they must fulfill all of their remaining CCD (also called “Canadian talent development”) contribution commitments set out in Commission decisions prior to this decision.
