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 and welcome to this hearing of the Commission. My name is Ellen Desmond, I am the Commissioner for the Atlantic Region and Nunavut and I will chair this hearing. With me on the panel are my colleagues, Bram Abramson, Commissioner for Ontario and Nirmala Naidoo, Commissioner for Alberta and the Northwest Territories. Cindy Ventura is our Hearing Secretary and Bianka Lauzon is our Legal Counsel. I invite the Hearing Secretary to present the item on the agenda for today.

On 2 March 2023, the Commission published Broadcasting Notice of Consultation CRTC 2023-49. The application referenced in this notice is being considered today without the appearance of the parties.

The Commission has received an intervention for the application and it has been placed on the public file for this hearing.

Thank you.

Chairperson: Ok thank you. Any questions from the panel members?

Bram Abramson: No questions.

Nirmala Naidoo: No questions.

Chairperson: I should emphasize that the matters that form part of the Agenda will be given full consideration by the hearing panel and a decision will be released in due course after consultation with the full Commission. This therefore concludes today's hearing. I wish to thank my colleagues, Legal Counsel and the Hearing Secretary for their assistance. The hearing is now adjourned.
