  • Avis Budget Group Applauds Volkswagen and Hyundai for Canadian Car of the Year Awards
    Avis Budget Group Applauds Volkswagen and Hyundai for Canadian Car of the Year Awards TORONTO, Dec. 23, 2014 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Avis Budget Group's Canadian operations today congratulated Volkswagen Group Canada Inc. and Hyundai Auto Canada Corp. for winning recognition for manufacturing some of Canada's best new vehicles. The car manufacturers were recently honored by the Automobile Journalists Association of Canada (AJAC) with the Canadian Car of the Year "Best New" Awards. The Association named the 2015 Volkswagen Golf as the "Best New Small Car over $21,000," the 2015 Hyundai Sonata as the "Best New Family Car over $30,000" and the 2015 Hyundai Genesis as the "Best New Luxury Car over $50,000." Avis Budget Group is proud to feature all three award-winning vehicles in its 2015 model-year fleet, available for rent at select Avis Car Rental and Budget Car Rental locations across Canada. The winners were selected by a group of Canada's best-known automotive journalists who conducted a five-day test-drive of brand-new or significantly-changed vehicle models. The vehicles were driven on public roads under the same conditions to ensure fair and objective comparisons. "Test Fest, as the test-drive event is commonly known, is one of the most rigorous vehicle evaluation programs in Canada," said Roman Zelyk, director of fleet operations, Canada, Avis Budget Group. "We applaud Volkswagen and Hyundai on their wins." Avis Car Rental serves customers at nearly 200 Canadian locations, at airports large and small as well as metropolitan and local market facilities in all ten provinces.

  • Local 830M Intervention 2018-127
    Unifor Local 830M Intervention on CRTC Broadcast Notice of Consultation 2018-127 1. I am writing with conditional support for Rogers application for a national, multilingual multi-ethnic television service offering news and information programming, which, if licensed, would receive mandatory distribution on the basic service pursuant to section 9(1)(h) of the Broadcasting Act. 2. I would like to appear at October 15, 2018 hearing. 3. Unifor Local 830M represents 60 unionized employees in Vancouver who work for Rogers Communications to produce programming for CKVU, CHNM and OMNI Regional. 4. We want to work with Rogers and the Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunication Commission (CRTC) to ensure Canadians have access to high quality local multicultural news, produced in-house by Rogers employees in the cities across Canada which they also operate over the air (OTA) multicultural broadcast licenses. 5. Many of the applications the CRTC is considering with BNOC 2018-127 are deficient and could allow a Broadcaster the ability to contract out local news programming to a sub contractor who could be a competitor or even a subsidiary of a foreign broadcaster. Providing a translation service through the use of technology would also be a mistake and fall far short of the goals of the Broadcast Act. 6. The CRTC has allowed large vertically integrated Canadian companies to operate in a winner takes all world of regulated broadcast licensing. This is especially true with Rogers as the only multicultural broadcaster with its series of OMNI licences. 7. Unifor Local 830M would like the CRTC to consider what our conditions of support are: 8.

  • Which New Cars and Trucks Are the Best? Ajac
    WHICH NEW CARS AND TRUCKS ARE THE BEST? AJAC DECLARES THE BEST FOR 2009 IN 14 CATEGORIES Niagara-on-the-Lake, ON – After five days of intense testing, the 2009 “Best New” AJAC award winners in 14 different vehicle categories were announced today, October 24, 2008, by the Automobile Journalists Association of Canada (AJAC) at a press conference held at the Niagara District Airport. The purpose of the AJAC awards is to provide consumers with a valuable resource that comprises comparative information on vehicles that are new to the market. Are consumers listening? It would appear so. Maritz Research, on behalf of AJAC and in association with General Motors of Canada Ltd., conducted a survey of 2008 Buick Enclave purchasers to test their recognition of AJAC, the AJAC awards and the Buick Enclave as the winner of the Best New SUV Over $60,000 awrd for 2008. Fully 74% of the 2008 Buick Enclave buyers who were aware of the AJAC Awards program when they purchased their vehicles knew that the Enclave was voted Best New SUV Over $60,000 – a record high-point for awareness. And of those buyers, 41% said the award had a positive influence on their buying decision. That is a concrete measure of how influential the AJAC Canadian Car of the Year Awards have become. For that reason, the vote results that determined today’s winners are available on the AJAC web site www.ajac.ca, for use by consumers as a resource buying guide when researching the purchase of a new car, truck, SUV, or CUV for 2009.
