CBWT Winnipeg, CBMT Montréal, CBDE-TV Brochet, CBDI-TV Poplar River and CBDG-TV Shamattawa - Licence amendments
1. The Commission approves the applications by the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation (CBC) to amend the broadcasting licences for the television programming undertakings CBWT Winnipeg and CBMT Montréal in order for CBWT to replace CBMT as the source of programming broadcast by the rebroadcasting transmitters CBDE-TV Brochet, CBDI-TV Poplar River and CBDG-TV Shamattawa. The Commission did not receive any interventions in connection with this application.
2. The licensee stated that the proposed licence amendments would allow it to better serve the populations of Brochet, Poplar River and Shamattawa.
3. As a result of the approval granted in this decision, the Commission revokes the authority granted to CBMT to broadcast programming on the rebroadcasting transmitters CBDE-TV, CBDI-TV and CBDG-TV.
4. The Commission notes that approval of these applications has no technical implications because no transmitters will be moved, added or taken away, and because no changes in the official contours of either the originating stations or the rebroadcasting transmitters are planned.
