Stations jockey for place on basic cable in CRTC review
Hearings beginning Tuesday in Gatineau, Que., will reshape the face of the Canadian TV dial.
Canadian broadcasters are jockeying for a place in the coming digital universe, as the federal broadcasting regulator begins a complete review of what constitutes basic cable.
While some Canadian broadcasters, including major networks such as Global, CTV and CBC, are ensured a place, others have to make their cases before the Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission to get a spot on the dial.
