to better assess the undertaking’s compliance with the Regulations
and/or conditions of licence, the licensee has been authorized to
further correct its program logs. The corrected program logs must be
submitted no later than 5 January 2004.
The Commission notes that during the current licence term the
licensee apparently did not meet its commitment with respect to
local news programming.
The licensee was also in apparent non-compliance with its condition
of licence relating to close-captioning of the local news and public
affairs program "Québec ce soir" during the broadcast years
2000-2001, 2001-2002 and 2002-2003.
The Commission notes that some matters are still outstanding and
that the Commission may add documents or letters to the public file.

Broadcasting Notice of
Public Hearing CRTC 2003-11, item 22
Application by GENEX COMMUNICATIONS INC. to renew the licence of the
commercial radio programming undertaking CHOI-FM expiring 31 August
2004.
The licensee also proposes to amend its licence in order to be
relieved of the following conditions of licence enumerated in
Broadcasting Decision CRTC 2002-189:
The licensee shall comply with the CHOI-FM Code of
Ethics set out in Appendix II to Broadcasting Decision
2002-189, 16 July 2002.
The licensee shall create and ensure the ongoing operation of
an advisory committee, the mandate, operation and composition of
which must be approved by the Commission.
The licensee shall not broadcast more than three (3)
English-language montages, each with a maximum duration of 15
minutes, per day.
The licensee shall keep logger tapes of the programming broadcast
by CHOI-FM for at least 90 days following the date of broadcast.
In Decision 2002-189, renewing CHOI-FM’s licence for a two year
period, the Commission, by condition of licence, required the
station to adhere to the CHOI-FM Code of Ethics.
In Decision 2002-189, the Commission stated the following: "At the
same time if, in the future, it considers that Genex has again
failed to comply with the Radio Regulations or any of the conditions
attached to CHOI-FM’s licence, including the code of ethics in
Appendix II to this decision, the Commission may call Genex to a
public hearing to show cause why the Commission should not issue
such an order or apply any of its enforcement measures including
revocation or suspension of the licence of CHOI-FM."
During the current licence term, the Commission has received
complaints about the station's spoken-word programming. As a result
of complaints, the Commission notes the apparent failure of the
licensee in several instances during the licence term to comply with
various provisions of the CHOI-FM Code of Ethics, including
particularly sections 2, 3, 6, 17 and 18. The Commission also notes
the apparent failure of the licensee to comply with section 3 of the
Radio Regulations, 1986 (the Regulations).
The Commission expects the licensee to show cause at this hearing
why a mandatory order under section 12 of the Broadcasting Act
(the Act), requiring the licensee to conform to the Regulations and
to the condition of licence that requires the licensee to comply
with the CHOI-FM Code of Ethics should not be issued.
The Commission also expects the licensee to demonstrate at this
hearing why the Commission should not suspend or refuse to renew the
licence under sections 24 and 9, respectively of the Act.
Additional information may be found in the public examination file
of this licensee, including the exchange of correspondence on
complaints, together with copies of reports of its advisory
committee, abridged to remove certain personal information. These
may be discussed at the hearing.
The Commission notes that some matters are still outstanding.
Further, should the licensee be found in apparent violation of the
Act, the Regulations or the CHOI-FM Code of Ethics,
particulars of the sections involved will be set out in the
correspondence and CHOI-FM will be given notice of any enforcement
measures the Commission proposes to consider. The Commission may
therefore add documents or letters to the public file.
