CBKT Regina - New transmitters

1.

The Commission approves the application by the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation (CBC) to amend the broadcasting licence for the television programming undertaking CBKT Regina in order to operate transmitters in Fond du Lac, Stony Rapids/Black Lake and Uranium City.

2.

The transmitters will enable viewers in the above-mentioned communities to receive the programming of the CBC's English-language television network originating from CBKT Regina. The transmitters will operate as follows:

Effective radiated power (watts)

CBKAT-2 Fond du Lac

CBKAT-3 Stony Rapids/Black Lake

CBKAT Uranium City

3.

The Commission did not receive any interventions in connection with this application.

4.

The Commission notes that the above-noted transmitters are currently operated by the CBC as a radiocommunication distribution undertaking (RDU), which rebroadcasts the programming of the CBC Northern Television Service.

5.

The CBC has advised that improvements in satellite feed technology now permit it to provide these communities with the full CBKT Regina program schedule. The CBC noted that it is thus no longer necessary to hold a separate RDU licence for these transmitters, and has asked that the licence be revoked.

6.

Accordingly, the Commission, pursuant to sections 9(1)(e) and 24 (2) of the Broadcasting Act, revokes the broadcasting licence issued to the CBC in respect to the above-noted RDU.
