Application No. 2010-0222-9
Application by TVA Group Inc. to amend the broadcasting licence of the national Category 2 specialty programming undertaking known as YOOPA.
The licensee proposes to replace the condition of licence relating to its nature of service, which reads:
The licensee shall provide a national French-language Category 2 specialty programming undertaking aimed exclusively at children from two to six years old.
The licensee shall provide a national French-language Category 2 specialty service aimed exclusively at children from two to six years old, except in the period after 9 p.m., when the service may broadcast programming on subjects of interest to parents of young children.
The licensee states that it wants to broadcast programming relevant to the parents of young children in order to complete its broadcast schedule after 9 p.m., since the primary target group for this service is no longer watching during the period in question.

Application by Instant Information Services Incorporated to amend the broadcasting licence of the English-language low-power FM tourist information service CIRM-FM Moncton.
The licensee proposes to amend the licence by changing the frequency of its low-power transmitter from 101.9 MHz (channel 270LP) to 90.1 MHz (channel 211LP).
The licensee states this frequency change is needed as a result Broadcasting Decision 2009-224 in which the Commission granted a licence to Maritime Broadcasting to operate a station 101.7 MHz in Amherst.

3. Rouyn-Noranda, Quebec
Application by Communications CHIC (C.H.I.C.) to amend the broadcasting licence for the French-language specialty commercial radio programming undertaking CHIC-FM Rouyn-Noranda.
The licensee proposes to change the authorized contours by increasing the effective radiated power from 300 watts to 3,400 watts (non-directional antenna with an increase in the effective height of antenna above average terrain from 35 metres to 103.3 metres). All other technical parameters remain unchanged.
The licensee states that this increase is necessary to enable listeners to receive the signal, without interference in homes and buildings located within the authorized 3 mV/m contour.

Application by Radio Communautaire MF Lac Simon inc. to amend the broadcasting licence of the Native Type B French-language radio programming undertaking CHUN-FM Rouyn-Noranda.
The licensee proposes to change the authorized contours by increasing the effective radiated power from 499 watts to 3,400 watts (non-directional antenna with a decrease in the effective height of antenna above average terrain from 108.7 metres to 103.3 metres). All other technical parameters remain unchanged.
The licensee states that this increase is justified by a serious signal penetration problem within the authorized 3 mV/m contour. Some listeners have complained that they cannot receive CHUN-FM’s signal inside their residence.

5. Mont Ste-Claire, Quebec
Application by 9202-1617 Québec inc. to amend the broadcasting licence of the French-language commercial radio programming undertaking CKGS-FM Saguenay (zone La Baie).
The licensee proposes to add an FM transmitter at Mont Ste-Claire to broadcast the programming of CKGS-FM Saguenay in order to adequately serve the population of Chicoutimi and Jonquière. According to the licensee, these changes will improve the quality of CKGS-FM’s signal particularly in those districts.
The transmitter would operate on frequency 105.9 MHz (channel 290A1) with an average effective radiated power of 57 watts (maximum effective radiated power of 250 watts with an effective height of antenna above average terrain of 51.1 metres).
The Commission notes that the population will increase from 29,294 to 47,810 in the 3 mV/m contour and decrease from 81,183 to 61,350 in the 0.5 mV/m contour.

Application by Newcap Inc. to amend the broadcasting licence of the English-language commercial radio programming undertaking CILV-FM Ottawa.
The licensee is seeking an amendment to its condition of licence relating to contributions to Canadian Content Development (CCD).
The licensee is requesting the flexibility to carry forward balances of CCD amounts paid or payable. More specifically, the licensee requests that, due to the fluctuating nature of its ‘‘Big Money Shot’’ local CCD initiative, its cumulative CCD spent for this initiative be permitted to vary up to 20% annually from the cumulative commitment according to its condition of licence. However, the licensee has committed to have all CCD funds disbursed in their entirety by 31 August 2013.
It appears to the Commission that the licensee may have failed to comply with its condition of licence relating to Canadian Talent Development, and more specifically with the ‘‘Big Money Shot’’ initiative, in broadcast year 2006 and 2007 since the annual contributions were not paid in full by the end of 2006 (prorated amount) and 2007.
Phase I Unit 100
Application by CTV Limited relating to the broadcasting licence of the English-language commercial radio programming undertaking CKQM-FM Peterborough.
The licensee is proposing to amend the technical parameters of its CKQM-FM transmitter by increasing the effective radiated power from 7,500 watts to 25,000 watts (Class B to Class C1 with a non-directional antenna with an effective height of antenna above average terrain 277.5 metres). All other technical parameters will remain unchanged.
The licensee wishes to increase the quality of the signal for the population served by this transmitter.
Application by Newcap Inc. to amend the broadcasting licence of the English-language commercial radio programming undertaking CKMP-FM Calgary.
The licensee proposes that a portion of the amount contributed to the ‘‘Making of a Band’’ initiative in 2009 be transferred to the 2010 broadcast year and that the balance caused by the reduction in the 2009 amount be added to the 2014 broadcast year.
The licensee is also requesting flexibility to carry forward the balances of CCD amounts paid or payable. More specifically, the applicant requests that, due to the fluctuating nature of its ‘‘Making of a Band’’ local CCD initiative, its cumulative CCD spent for this initiative be permitted to vary up to 20% annually from the cumulative commitment amount according to its condition of licence. However, the applicant committed to have all CCD funds contributed in their entirety by 31 August 2014.
As noted in Broadcasting Decision 2010-99, it appears to the Commission that the licensee may have failed to comply with its condition of licence relating to Canadian Talent Development in the 2007 and 2008 broadcast years since the annual contributions were not paid in full by the end of each of these broadcast years.
9. Grande Cache, Alberta
Application by Newcap Inc. to amend the broadcasting licence of the English-language commercial FM radio programming undertaking CFXE-FM Edson.
The licensee proposes to add an FM transmitter at Grande Cache, Alberta, to broadcast the programming of CFXE-FM in order to adequately serve the population of Grande Cache.
The transmitter would operate on frequency 93.3 MHz (channel 227A1) with an effective radiated power of 190 watts (non-directional antenna with an effective height of antenna above average terrain of -81.7 metres).
The licensee seeks to replace its existing AM rebroadcasting transmitter CFXG Grand Cache with an FM rebroadcasting transmitter.
The licensee states that, because electrical and other interference levels have increased and the expectations of the population with regard to quality have risen, the low-power AM signal has become unreliable and unsatisfactory.

10. Sechelt, British Columbia
