Dear Me Dignard:

Re: application number 2012-0441-1

This is in reference to the applications by Cogeco Diffusion Acquisitions inc. (Cogeco) for authority to increase the effective radiated power for radio programming undertaking CKBE-FM Montréal, operated on 92.5 MHz.

Commission staff would like to inform you that the analysis of you application has been suspended given its relations to application 2011-1679-9 by Dufferin Communications Inc. (Dufferin) for a broadcasting licence to operate an English-language commercial FM radio programming undertaking in Clarence-Rockland, Ontario, on frequency 92.5 MHz. Staff notes that both applications are technically mutually exclusive. To that effect, staff notes the intervention filed by Cogeco in opposition to Dufferin’s application.

In Broadcasting Notice of Consultation 2012-212-1, the Commission withdrew Dufferin’s application from the 7 June 2012 hearing to be scheduled at a later date. Commission staff informs you that your application will be scheduled at an upcoming hearing to be examined along with Dufferin’s application.

A copy of this letter and all related correspondence will be added to the public record of the proceeding.

Yours sincerely,

Joelle Paré
Senior Radio Analyst
