a) for authority to acquire the assets of the (satellite to cable) programming undertaking currently licensed to Racetrack Management (1983), a limited partnership, (Racetrack Management) upon surrender of the current licence which is currently in the hands of its receiver manager and trustee in bankruptcy; and

The service is proposed for operation under the same conditions as the current licence except for the mode of distribution.
The applicant has indicated that as the satellite uplink facilities previously used by "Racetrack Management" to uplink its signal to cable systems throughout Manitoba have been sold, the service is now only available to the two Winnipeg cable systems via the telephone system.
The applicant has also indicated that virtually the entire service will consist of live programming, including coverage of 40 races per week from Assiniboia Downs during the months of May through October exclusively and coverage of approximately 120 horse races per week during the months of November through April from horse race tracks other than Assiniboia Downs in Canada and in the United States. Canadian program content is proposed to be not less than 70% overall.
The Commission notes that service currently distributed by the applicant would appear to contain advertising, contrary to a condition of the licence issued to Racetrack Management (1983). The Commission will take this apparent non-compliance into consideration in determining an appropriate term for the licence sought.
