  • Community Radio Contradictions in Canada: Learning from Volunteers Impacted by Commercialising Policies and Practices
    Community radio contradictions in Canada: Learning from volunteers impacted by commercialising policies and practices Gretchen King* Lebanese American University, Lebanon Omme-Salma Rahemtullah* Community Media Advocacy Centre, Canada Abstract Community radio has been defined by the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) as promoting non-profit ownership of stations and volunteer participation. The increasing commercialisation of community radio in Canada, evident in changing station practices and regulatory policies, has resulted in the erosion of volunteer run governance and programming. This article draws on community media, anti-oppression, and third-sector studies literature to investigate the experiences of volunteers from two stations, CHRY in Toronto and Radio Centre-Ville in Montréal. Current Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission (CRTC) regulations define community radio ‘by virtue of its place in the communities served.’ This article concludes that reducing the engagement and empowerment of volunteers in community radio programming and governance limits the place of community radio in the community. The authors will also identify best practices that are needed to re-centre community radio within the community while ensuring a sustainable non- profit community broadcasting sector. Keywords community radio, CHRY, Radio Centre-Ville, CRTC, volunteers, commercialisation, governance, policy Introduction Canada, described as the ‘birthplace of community radio’ (CRTC, 2008), is home to a long history of non-public, non-private radio practices and policies designed to provide community access to the airwaves. Today, Canadians have access to 1821 licensed community radio stations, the majority of which are located in the provinces of Ontario and Québec where more than 60 percent of the country’s population lives.

Luke Smith [email protected] "From a young age I was always told that life's not fair, and that's very true. But I believe that our society could do better," says Ella, one of the youth voices featured in the project. In a year where residential schooling, youth suicide and the spectre of child poverty have dominated national news, this broadcast is an effort to let young people speak directly and tell their own stories and opinions. “We are grateful to community radio and the NCRA/ANREC…. for its commitment to child rights and amplifying the voice of Canada’s children,” says Irwin Elman, the Chair of the Canada Council of Child and Youth Advocates. “It is an important step towards remembering that the rights that come very easily to some children are not afforded to all.” Dozens of youth voices will be featured, on topics ranging from education to suicide to LGBTQ+ teen issues and more. CJRU-AM “I am really excited about a segment we have where young people interview the Premier of the Yukon and also a feature on a youth choir that sings in Inuktitut,” says Jacky Tuinstra Harrison, part of the coordinating team at CJRU 1280AM.

    The Special Senate Committee on the Charitable Sector The Senate of Canada Ottawa, Ontario, Canada K1A 0A4 December 14, 2018 Dear Senators: I am writing on behalf of the National Campus and Community Radio Association / association nationale des radios étudiantes et communautaires (NCRA/ANREC). We work to ensure stability and support for individual community and campus radio broadcasters and the long-term growth and effectiveness of our sector. We represent more than 100 of Canada’s 180 licensed community stations, including six with charitable status. In this submission, we will inform the Committee about the the community radio sector in Canada, as well as some of the ways that federal laws and policies governing charities impact it. We also have three recommendations: 1. Additional charitable purposes should be added to the Income Tax Act to allow community radio’s ​ ​ charitable work to be recognized. We include suggestions for changes to the charitable purposes in the Act in Appendix A. ​ 2. Appeals of Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) decisions about charitable status should be moved to the Tax Court of Canada, rather than taking place in the Federal Court of Appeal. 3. To support the development of new community radio stations by providing access to funding for the initial capital costs. We agree with an innovative approach recommended by other witnesses: allocating funds from dormant bank accounts held by the Canadian public into the Social Innovation Fund. Community Radio in Canada Community radio is defined in the CRTC’s Campus and Community Radio Policy as radio that is: ​ ​ “owned, operated, managed and controlled by a not-for-profit organization that provides for ​ membership, management, operation and programming primarily by members of the community served.” 1 The community radio sector includes both community and campus radio stations (which are required to serve their broader communities in addition to the campus).
