The Commission received numerous interventions in this proceeding, almost all of which related to mandatory distribution of services under section 9(1)(h) of the Broadcasting Act (the Act). The Commission addressed mandatory distribution in Broadcasting Regulatory Policy 2013-372. The public record for this proceeding can be found on the Commission’s website at www.crtc.gc.ca under “Public Proceedings.” 3. The conventional and community-based television programming undertakings addressed in this decision are operated by independent licensees that are not part of large ownership groups. These licensees are key players in the provision of diverse Canadian programming that serves the needs and interests of communities across the country. In rendering its determinations, the Commission intent is to ensure that its licensing and regulation of smaller independent television services is as flexible and targeted as possible. Such an approach will enable televison programming undertakings to adapt to the changing communications environment, thus ensuring that they contribute to the achievement of the objectives set out in the Act, including: • each programming undertaking shall make maximum use, and in no case less than predominant use, of Canadian creative and other resources in the creation and presentation of programming, unless the nature of the service provided by the undertakings, such as specialized content or format or the use of languages other than French and English, renders that use impracticable, in which case the undertaking shall make the greatest practicable use of those resources (section 3(1)(f)); • the Canadian broadcasting system should encourage the development of Canadian expression by providing a wide range of programming that reflects Canadian attitudes, opinions, ideas, values and artistic creativity, by displaying Canadian talent in entertainment programming and by offering information and analysis concerning Canada and other countries from a Canadian point of view (section 3(1)(d)(ii)); and • the programming provided by the Canadian broadcasting system should be varied and comprehensive, providing a balance of information, enlightenment and entertainment for men, women and children of all ages, interests and tastes (section 3(1)(i)(i)). 4. The Commission’s determinations also implement a number of recent policy changes, such as those set out in Broadcasting Regulatory Policy 2011-442, which sets out standard conditions of licence, expectations and encouragements for conventional television stations, and Broadcasting Regulatory Policies 2010-622 and 2010-622-1, which set out the Commission’s community television policy. Commission’s analysis and decisions 5. After examining the applications in light of all applicable regulations and policies, the Commission considers that the issues it must address relate to the following: • exceptions to the standard requirements for conventional television stations; • request for local programming improvement fund (LPIF) support; • religious programming requirements; • broadcast of advertising; • licensees that wish to operate their undertakings under the same terms and conditions; and • non-compliance and length of the licence term. Exceptions to standard requirements for conventional television stations 6. The Commission has established standard conditions of licence, expectations and encouragements for conventional television stations, as set out in Broadcasting Regulatory Policy 2011-442. As part of their licence renewal applications, each licensee of a conventional television station was asked to confirm that it would adhere to the standard requirements or to provide a rationale should it wish to have an exception to any of those requirements. The following sections address the licensees’ requests. Standard requirement for local programming CHFD-DT and CKPR-DT Thunder Bay, ON and CITL-DT and CKSA-DT Lloydminster, British Columbia 7. In Broadcasting Regulatory Policy 2009-406, the Commission harmonized obligations relating to local programming for English-language non-metropolitan markets. Stations operating in such markets are required to offer at least seven hours of local programming per broadcast week. This requirement was included in the standard condition

    CANADIAN BROADCAST STANDARDS COUNCIL NATIONAL SPECIALTY SERVICES PANEL VisionTV re Dil Dil Pakistan (CBSC Decision 06/07-1426) Decided November 29, 2007 R. Cohen (Chair), T. Rajan (Vice-Chair), E. Duffy-MacLean, M. Hogarth, V. Houle, G. Phelan THE FACTS VisionTV is a multi-faith and multi-cultural specialty service whose broadcasts are of one of two kinds; they are either Cornerstone programming (programming of various types produced by VisionTV or licensed by VisionTV from independent producers and distributors, including drama, documentaries, sitcoms, music programs, and lifestyle series) or Mosaic programming (programming provided to VisionTV by various faith groups that have either produced or acquired that programming and purchase time on VisionTV to broadcast it, the programming often being in the form of sermons, readings from scripture, talk shows, or short form documentaries). Dil Dil Pakistan was, at material times, a weekly English-language religious program of the Mosaic variety that included Arabic-language elements in its broadcasts. The foregoing being said, it should be noted that VisionTV is responsible for the broadcast content of both Cornerstone and Mosaic programming in the same way that any broadcaster is responsible for every moment of content it broadcasts. The Challenged Episodes On the July 14, 2007 episode, which aired from 3:00 pm to 4:00 pm, VisionTV broadcast an imam named Israr Ahmad giving a lesson or sermon that dealt with Sura 2 of the Qur’an, which is entitled Al-Baqara (it appears, from the Islamic, or Hijri, calendar year provided by the imam during the broadcast, namely, 1421, that the lesson was originally recorded, and possibly broadcast, in 2000, being the approximately equivalent Gregorian calendar year).

  • Largest Gifts from Canadian Charities to Other Qualified Donees in 2012
    www.globalphilanthropy.ca Largest Gifts from Canadian Charities to other Qualified Donees in 2012 By Mark Blumberg (January 3, 2014) Canadian charities, depending on their objects can carry out charitable activities in three different ways. Some do all three. 1) A registered charity can conduct charitable activities using staff and volunteers. 2) A registered charity can work with an intermediary who is not a qualified donee as long as it has “direction and control” over its funds as set out in CRA’s two Guidances on the subject (at http://bit.ly/ybUGAB) 3) A registered charity can make a gift to a qualified donee. For a list of qualified donees see: http://www.cra-arc.gc.ca/chrts- gvng/qlfd-dns/qd-lstngs/menu-eng.html We recently reviewed the T3010 information for 2012. The database was prepared by the Charities Directorate of CRA in October 2013 and covers about 82,500 charities of the approximately 86,000 Canadian registered charities and their 2012 T3010 returns. www.globalphilanthropy.ca Here is a list of all gifts over $500,000 from the 2012 T3010 Registered Charity Information Returns.
