The Commission did not receive any interventions regarding these applications. 3. As noted in Broadcasting Decision 2010-735, CFGX-FM Sarnia, CHKS-FM Sarnia, CHOK Sarnia, CKNX Wingham, CKNX-FM Wingham, CKUE-FM Chatham and CFCO Chatham were found in non-compliance in their previous licence terms with section 9(2) of the Radio Regulations, 1986 relating to the provision of annual returns.

Pursuant to section 22 of the Broadcasting Act, the Commission reminds the licensee that the broadcasting licences will cease to have any force or effect if the broadcasting certificates issued by the Department of Industry lapse. Employment equity 5. Because this licensee is subject to the Employment Equity Act and files reports concerning employment equity with the Department of Employment and Social Development, its employment equity practices are not examined by the Commission.
