The Canadian Cable Television Association (CCTA) is asking the CRTC to allow the U.S. channel FOX News to be distributed in Canada on a digital-only basis, and further applications for the digital carriage of foreign channels are expected this summer. The CCTA vowed last November to continue efforts to get more foreign channels into the country after the CRTC rejected an application for the mass approval of 17 U.S. channels (CCR, Nov. 14/03).
