2. The Commission received interventions in support of various applications.
3. The Commission also received an intervention by the Province of Ontario concerning the applications for CHCR-FM Killaloe and CKWR-FM Kitchener and an intervention by the Province of British Columbia concerning the application for CFML-FM Burnaby. These interventions related to the participation of the stations in the National Public Alerting System (NPAS). The public record for these applications is available on the Commission’s website at www.crtc.gc.ca under “Public Proceedings.”
4. As specified in its three-year plan, the Commission will be looking at measures to ensure the participation of Canadian broadcasters and telecommunications service providers in the NPAS. Therefore, the Commission will not impose conditions of licence requiring the participation of broadcasters in the NPAS at this time. However, the Commission expects all licensees to voluntarily participate in the NPAS so that Canadians receive timely warnings of imminent perils.

In Broadcasting Notice of Consultation 2013-221 (the Notice), the Commission noted that these licensees appeared to be in non-compliance with section 9(2) of the Radio Regulations, 1986 (the Regulations) regarding the provision of annual returns.

6. Section 9(2) of the Regulations requires licensees to file an annual return by 30 November of each year for the broadcast year ending the previous 31 August. The filing requirements, including the requirement to submit financial statements with the annual returns, are set out in Broadcasting Information Bulletin 2011-795.

11. The licensee indicated that the annual returns were not filed due to a lack of understanding and communication between the station’s board of directors and the station coordinator. The licensee indicated that it was working to locate and file the missing returns and that it had put measures in place to ensure compliance in the future.
12. In light of the above, the Commission finds that the CKDU-FM Society in non-compliance with section 9(2) of the Regulations for CKDU-FM for the 2005-2006, 2006-2007 and 2007-2008 broadcast years.

16. In light of the above, the Commission finds Concordia Student Broadcasting Corporation in non-compliance with section 9(2) of the Regulations regarding the provision of annual returns for CJLO for each of the 2008-2009 and 2009-2010 broadcast years.

21. The licensee indicated that the 2008-2009 annual returns were submitted late despite the best efforts of volunteers.

The financial statements have now been submitted, and the board of directors will supervise preparation of future annual returns.
22. In light of the above, the Commission finds Coopérative Radio-Halifax-Métro limitée in non-compliance with section 9(2) of the Regulations for CKRH-FM for the 2008-2009 and 2009-2010 broadcast years.

Regulatory measures
50. In Broadcasting Information Bulletin 2011-347, the Commission announced a revised approach to non-compliance by radio stations. Specifically, the Commission indicated that each instance of non-compliance would be evaluated in its context and in light of factors such as the quantity, recurrence and seriousness of the non-compliance. The Commission also indicated that it would consider the circumstances of the non-compliance, the arguments provided by the licensee and the measures taken to rectify the situation.
51. The Commission notes that compliance with the deadlines for the filing of complete annual returns is important because it enables the Commission to monitor a licensee’s performance and compliance with the Regulations and its conditions of licence.
52. In light of the circumstances surrounding the non-compliance, the Commission finds that it is appropriate to renew the broadcasting licences of CITU-FM and CFCR-FM for a full seven-year term.
53. For the remainder of the stations, the Commission finds that the appropriate measure is a short-term renewal, as set out below, the length of which reflects the nature and extent of the non-compliance. The short-terms renewals will allow for an earlier review of each licensee’s compliance with the Regulations and with its conditions of licence.
54. With respect to CKDU-FM, the Commission notes that it still has not received the annual returns for the 2005-2006, 2006-2007 and 2007-2008 broadcast years. Accordingly, the conditions of licence for CKDU-FM set out in Appendix 3 to this decision require the licensee to file the missing annual returns within 90 days of the date of this decision.
