Last Thursday, I wrote<\/a> about the call for comments that the CRTC issued, accompanied by a YouTube video<\/a> appeal for participation.<\/p>\n

The CRTC has a hearing starting today with the intent of having the public participate, live or by teleconference. The Commission notes on its website<\/a>:<\/p>\n

In addition to the 16,700 comments posted on the CRTC Website for this hearing, approximately 173,000 comments were submitted through the third parties\/campaigns listed below. These comments have been placed on the public record of this proceeding and are available at the CRTC’s Documentation Centre and at the hearing.<\/p>\n

Stop the TV Tax (see comment no. 18404 – Revised on 30 November 2009)<\/p>\n

Local TV Matters (see comment no. 18405)<\/p>\n

Cogeco (see comment no. 18406)<\/p>\n

Other campaigns (see comment no. 18407)<\/p>\n

Over 4000 comments were received by the CRTC AFTER the deadline for comments had elapsed. Therefore, they will not be taken into account in preparing the CRTC’s report to the Government, but are available on the public record of this proceeding for general information to the public.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

It could not have been easy trying to pull together the agenda<\/a> of appearance for this proceeding.<\/p>\n

It should be entertaining to follow along.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
