Mayor & Council Municipality of Dell Ta 4500 Clarence Taylor Crescent Mayor .. Council From; STOP THE BORDER BLASTER [[email protected]] Sent: Friday, June 27,201410:31 AM To: Mayor & CouhCiI Cc: Huntington, Vicki; Findlay, Kerry-Lynne Subject: STOP THE BORPER BLASTER critiques MP's JUne 23 update to Mayor &Council Mayor & Council Municipality of DEll ta 4500 Clarence Taylor Crescent Delta, Be V4K 3E2 Re: STOP THE BORDER BLASTER crit:l.ques MP'S June Mayor & Council: I am concerned about Member of parliament Kerry-Lynne Findlay's KRPI update to Mayor and Council on JUne 23; so, for the following reasons, I repeat my request that Mayor and council insist that we get the cooperation from Canada, our national government, that we have every right to expect: . One, it's beyond me why our MP has declined to have Canada protest the S0,00e-watt KRPI AM transmitter planned for Point Roberts. There's no reason why our sovereign nation cannot file a protest on Delta's behalf in Washington De. Two, our MP's refusal to file an informal objection to KRPI's application for renewal of its broadcast licence also defies reason. Her doing so would support the informal objection and rebuttal filedwlth the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) by our American neighbours in Point Roberts WA. But, again, she has refused to do so: Why? Three, our MP is a lawyer who boasts of being a QC yet she failed to note that the AM transmission agreement between Canada and the States calls for mutual consideration of exceptional circumstances. The circumstance into which BBC Broadcasting Inc, owner of KRPI, has thrust Tsawwassen and the Tsawwassen First Nation as well as Point Roberts is most exceptional. Her ignoring this mutual consideration provision suggests that she does not have our interest at heart. Four, during her address to Council, she failed to express concern for the threat that this high-wattage AM transmitter poses to our property values) a callous refusal to acknowledge that a home is most Canadians' biggest asset. I Five, even after the previous speaker Armene Belless of Point Roberts revealed that KRPI's mitigation promise did not fix problems in Ferndale) our MP parroted KRPI's laughable promise to fix any problems that its harmful blanketing interference will cause here, suggesting again that she has KRPI's interests at heart, rather than ours. The inadequacy of mitigation is a subject that needs more space than I can be give it here; for now, it's enough to note that mitigation is fraught with legal, jurisdictional and technical pitfalls, shortcomings) and failures, So-called "mitigation" will be critiqued at length at a later date. Six, our MP also made light of the omissions and misrepresentations found in this radio station's filings with the FCC, suggesting that they might or might not be intentional when 1 any reasonable person or judge would deem them to be a pattern of dishonesty or wilful ignorance. Seven, our MP repeated her claim that the FCC knew of Tsawwassen when it granted BBC Broadcasting Inc a construction permit for Point Roberts, a claim that casts the FCC as an aider and abettor to an applicant who hid at le(ist 22,000 Canadians from the notice of FCC regulators. Since when did such an august American commission align itself with the dishonestl And since when did Americans begin harming and treating Canadians with the disdain that our MP Findlay's claim implies? And if she stands by this claim,; why isn't she standing up in every way she can against our being treated so shabbily? Eight, MP Findlay QC failed to point out that Canadians have every right to expect the FCC to regulate this proposed AM transmitter with the same concern for us as it would show for 22,ee0 Americans living under a proposed field of harmful blanketing interference of the strength that KRPI is proposing. There's no doubt that if Canadian leaders such as our MP Kerry-Lynne FindlayQC, Industry Canada Minister James Moore and Foreign Affairs Minister John Baird stood up to call this spade a spade; the FCC would acknowledge that BBC Broadcasting Inc won its permit slyly and dishonestly and thus rescind, annul or c(incel said permit. The Americans pride themselves on being a democracy that thrives on honest dealing and respect for universal human rights, so they would appreciate our Canadian leaders drawing their attention to this instance when an applicant to the FCC has used deceit to win a permit that will enable it to disregard our rights to fair and equal treatment, rights based on the fact that the FCC would never subject 22,000 Americans to the harmful blanketing interference that's in store for us. But our federal political representative, MPFindlay QC, declines to have Canada draw this deceit and disdain to the FCC's attention, causing Tsawwassenitesto ask: Is she the MP for us) or for KRPI AM Radio of Washington State, U.S.A? Mayor & Council, our MP's actions have failed us thus far, so I'm repeating my request that Delta insiSt that we get the national and international reprasentationto Washington DC from Industry Canada and Foreign Affairs that we need, deserve, and have every right to expect. Yours truly, Greg J. Edwards Stop the Border Blaster 5.078 Walker Avenue Delta, B.C.

If It does not affect you personally, it does affect Ms. Findlay's constituency, to whom she is accountable. We continue to ask, yet again, that you individually and severally take this issue to those responsible for erecting these towers, and pass on our concerns. Is there anyone who doesn't have a TV or cell phone these days, plus other electronic equipment which we don't own, who doesn't rely on these uninterrupted services? Even in the event of a major disaster, TV can be a valuable source of information. And especially those who operate Ham radios. We urge you to THINK this through, and ACT responsibly. please show us action to support your words. Yours truly, ~ Iq- b5"O~ -n-\/i2D~'VG"JlU? BtLD'i \~ VlfL- ~}NI .

  • F14 Point Roberts Radio Tower Proposal
    The Corporation of Delta F.14 COUNCIL REPORT Regular Meeting To: Mayor and Council From: Human Resources and Corporate Planning Department Date: June 18, 2014 Point Roberts Radio Tower Proposal The following report has been reviewed and endorsed by the Chief Administrative Officer. • RECOMMENDATIONS: A. THAT letters be sent to Whatcom County and Industry Canada reiterating Delta's concerns regarding the Point Roberts radio tower proposal and requesting information with respect to those concerns. B. THAT copies of these letters be sent to The Honourable Kerry-Lynne D. Findlay, Member of Parliament, Delta-Richmond East; Jinny Sims, Member of Parliament, Newtown-North Delta; Scott Hamilton, Member of the Legislative Assembly, Delta­ North; and Vicki Huntington, Member of the Legislative Assembly, Delta-South. • PURPOSE: The purpose of this report is to provide an update on the proposal to locate a radio transmitter site in Point Roberts, Washington and to reiterate Council's position on this issue through letters to regulatory authorities. • BACKGROUND: In July 2013, BBC Broadcasting Inc. submitted an application for a conditional use permit to Whatcom County Planning & Development Services for the construction of an AM radio transmitting facility at 1563 McKenzie Way in Point Roberts, close to the Canada/US border. The facility includes 5 antenna structures, with an approximate height of 150 feet (46 metres). The application generated a considerable amount of public concern from some residents in Tsawwassen, particularly after hearing that local residents in Ferndale, where the towers are currently situated, have been complaining for years about radio interference from the towers. In September 2013, Mayor Jackson wrote to the Whatcom County Hearing Examiner to express concern about the potential impacts of the radio facility on the local community and to seek assurances that the problems experienced in Ferndale are not simply being transferred to Point Roberts and Tsawwassen (a copy of this letter and the response is provided as Attachment 'A').

Please ensure that any reproduction or re-use is done in accordance with the relevant national copyright legislation. Approval Name: Geneva Alexandria Nam Degree: Master of Arts Title: OMNI CHANNEL AND CANADIAN ETHNIC MEDIA: A critical case study of Third Language Broadcasting Policy Examining Committee: Chair: Chris Jeschelnik Lecturer Alison Beale Senior Supervisor Professor Catherine Murray Supervisor Professor Gender, Sexuality and Women’s Studies Daniel Ahadi Examiner Lecturer Date Defended/Approved: December 6, 2019 ii Abstract The foundations of the Canadian broadcasting system are pillared by the recognition of Canadian culture through language. The Canadian Radio-Television and Telecommunications Commission (CRTC) recognizes this by setting minimum broadcasting content requirements for Canada’s English, French, Métis and First Nation’s language on Canadian television channels. What is exempt from this requirement is the remaining media: the ethnic or third language media. This investigation set out to review the history of ethnic media policy from 2007 to 2019 through a case study of the OMNI multicultural channel because of its significant role as the largest multicultural and multilingual media company in Canada. Findings of this case identify policy gaps that question how well CRTC regulations serve the Canadian ethnic media audience.

Electromagnetic Spectrum Bands The federal government, through the Federal Communications Commission (“FCC”), coordinates and regulates all uses of electromagnetic spectrum in the United States. Every portion of the spectrum is organized into types of uses. See attached United States Frequency Allocation chart and Radio Frequency Spectrum table. AM radio operates in the Medium Wave (MW)1 band, and is different from FM which operates in the Very High Frequency band (VHF),2 TV which operates in both the VHF band and the 1 MW is Medium Wave which is 300 kHz to 3,000 kHz (3 MHz). 2 VHF is Very High Frequencies from 30 to 300 MHz.
