The Commission, based on its examination and analysis of the record of this proceeding, has determined that retention of all of the requirements of section 22 is no longer appropriate or necessary, and will amend section 22 of the Regulations to require only that Class 1 BDUs, and those Class 2 BDUs that elect to distribute audio programming services, distribute local community, campus and native radio stations, as well as at least one CBC radio station operating in French and one in English. Background 1. The Commission received a request from the Canadian Cable Telecommunications Association (CCTA) for the repeal of section 22 of the Broadcasting Distribution Regulations (the Regulations).

(1) Except as otherwise provided under a condition of its licence, a Class 1 licensee, and any Class 2 licensee that elects to distribute an audio programming service in a licensed area, shall distribute in the licensed area (a) the programming services of all local radio stations; and (b) if they are not distributed under paragraph (a), (i) the programming services of at least one radio station that broadcasts in English and at least one that broadcasts in French that are owned and operated by the Corporation, and (ii) the educational radio programming service of an educational authority designated by the province in which the licensed area of the undertaking is located.
