CRTC releases details of plans for three different subscription radio services

News | 07/30/2004 4:00 am EDT

Is there room for three subscription radio operators in Canada? Probably not, so the regulator will be left to sift through a mountain of paperwork in an attempt to determine which one, or perhaps two, of the applicants deserve the green light, and the amount of Canadian content proposed for each of the services will likely be a factor.
