7.17
 		 As set out in Public Notice CRTC 1999-117, the Commission will set, by condition of licence, the minimum number of ethnic groups that each ethnic radio and television station must serve and the minimum number of languages in which it must provide programming.  The minimum number of distinct groups that a station must serve is established on the basis of the demographics of the community, the services already available and the degree of support shown by local community organizations.  In addition, the Commission stated that it will also weigh the ability of ethnic stations to provide appropriate amounts of quality programming to these groups and that it will evaluate how this broad service requirement is met in light of the ethnic programming available from all stations in the market.

Provide your commitments in this area, keeping in mind that they may be imposed as conditions of licence.
