Application by Radio Nord
Communications Inc. (Radio Nord), to acquire the assets of the radio
programming undertaking CKNU-FM Donnacona, Quebec and its transmitter
CKNU-FM-1 Sainte-Croix-de-Lotbinière, from 6087329 Canada Inc., a
corporation owned and controlled by Mr. Patrice Demers. |
| |
The applicant is also
requesting a licence to continue the operation of the undertaking under
the same terms and conditions, except the one described below, as those
in effect under the current licence, upon surrender of the licence
issued to 6087329 Canada Inc. |
| |
The applicant did not propose
any tangible benefits in the application given the non profitable
situation of CKNU-FM over a number of years. |
| |
The licensee proposes to
replace the condition of licence relating to local programming, which
reads : |
| |
broadcast a minimum of 42 hours of local programming per week
consisting of news and public affairs as well as community service
programming;
|
| |
with the standard condition of
licence as stipulated in Public Notice 1999-137,
which reads as follows: |
| |
Subject to paragraph 6, it is a condition of licence for commercial
FM stations serving markets other than single-station markets (Public
Notice CRTC 1993-121),
that the licensee refrain from soliciting or accepting local advertising
for broadcast during any broadcast week when less than one-third
of the programming aired is local. The definition of local programming
shall be as set out in Public Notice CRTC 1993-38,
as amended from time to time.

Radio Nord is a corporation
with share capital, and ultimate control resides with Jean-Yves Gourd.
Radio Nord is licensee of five television stations, one television
