Providing Content in Canada's Official Languages

Please note that the Official Languages Act requires that government publications be available in both official languages.

In order to meet some of the requirements under this Act, the Commission's transcripts will therefore be bilingual as to their covers, the listing of CRTC members and staff attending the hearings, and the table of contents.

However, the aforementioned publication is the recorded verbatim transcript and, as such, is transcribed in either of the official languages, depending on the language spoken by the participant at the hearing.

Good morning ladies and gentlemen and welcome to this hearing of the Commission. My name is Suzanne Lamarre, Commissioner, Quebec Region and I will chair this meeting. With me on the panel are my colleagues, Louise Poirier, National Commissioner and Peter Menzies, Commissioner, Alberta Region and Northwest Territories. Cindy Ventura will be the Secretary of this hearing and Jean-Sébastien Gagnon will be our Legal Counsel. Madam Secretary, what are the items on the agenda for today?

Thank you Madam Chair.

Chair: Any questions from the panel members?
