Broadcasting Decision CRTC 2025-136
Gatineau, 11 June 2025
Various licensees
Across Canada
Various radio programming undertakings – Administrative renewals
- The Commission renews the broadcasting licences for the radio programming undertakings and their transmitters set out in the appendices to this decision from 1 September 2026 to 31 August 2027.
- These one-year administrative renewals will allow time for the Commission to modernize its regulatory framework in response to the modernized Broadcasting Act and implement the appropriate changes. These renewals do not address any issues relating to the licensees’ compliance with the terms of their licence or their regulatory obligations. The Commission will consider the licence renewals and the licensees’ compliance at a later date. Interested persons will have an opportunity to comment at the appropriate time.
- The Online Streaming Act deemed obligations that previously existed as conditions of licence to be conditions imposed under an order made pursuant to section 9.1 of the Broadcasting Act or subsection 11.1(2) in the case of expenditure requirements. As such, the conditions of licence for these licensees became conditions of service which exist independent of the licence and continue to apply to the licensees.
- The Commission reminds licensees that, at all times, they may submit any new applications related to their radio undertakings where they can demonstrate that exceptional circumstances would justify the need to process them. As outlined in Broadcasting Information Bulletin 2023-278, such applications will be excluded from normal service standards and will be processed as time and resources permit.
Secretary General
This decision and the appropriate appendix are to be appended to each licence.

Dissenting opinion of Commissioner Ellen C. Desmond, K.C.
- My colleagues have approved the administrative renewal of 448 radio programming undertakings and their transmitters for a period of one year (from 1 September 2026 to 31 August 2027). Of these licenses, 314 were previously administratively renewed in Broadcasting Decision 2023-230.
- As noted in the majority decision, granting this renewal would allow the Commission time to update its regulatory framework in response to the modernized Broadcasting Act and implement the appropriate changes.
- With the greatest respect to my colleagues, I disagree with this renewal in the current context. While the administrative renewal process may be expedient and provide the Commission with much needed time to deal with legislative changes, the renewals impose the same terms and conditions that are currently in effect. For many licensees, this approach may be satisfactory. However, there may be others who have been patiently waiting for the renewal process and for the opportunity to amend what is now referred to as their conditions of service. In some instances, the wait time has been extended to three years.
- The majority has concluded the administrative renewal process does not prevent a licensee from submitting an application in advance of the next license renewal should they wish to do so. Yet, in so doing, must demonstrate that “exceptional circumstances exist”. This is because, as set out in Broadcasting Information Bulletin 2023-278, the Commission imposed a moratorium on the processing of such new applications. In effect, absent such exceptionality, applications will not be processed, thereby leaving licensees with no recourse to deal with other issues. In most situations, an application to amend a condition of service will be deferred and not be considered at this time.
- Given the moratorium, I am not able to conclude that this administrative renewal is in the public interest at this time.
