Pursuant to Public Notice CRTC 1990-89 dated 20 September 1990 entitled "Native Broadcasting Policy", the Commission will issue licences for Type A FM native radio stations. These licences will expire on 31 August 1999, and will be subject to the conditions specified in this decision and in the licences to be issued.
This term will enable the Commission to consider the renewal of these licences at the same time as that of other native radio programming undertakings.
The Commission notes that each station will broadcast 168 hours per week of programming, originating from CFNR Terrace, CKNM Yellowknife, CHON Whitehorse and CFWE Lac La Biche. Each station will also broadcast locally-produced programming. The programming language will be predominantly English.
It is a condition of each licence that construction of the undertaking be completed and that it be in operation within twelve months of the date of this decision or, where the applicant applies to the Commission within this period and satisfies the Commission that it cannot complete implementation before the expiry of this period and that an extension is in the public interest, within such further period of time as is approved in writing by the Commission.
