At a public hearing In Hull, Que. on 5 - June 1984, the Commis - Sion considered the ap- plication by CKNX Broad- casting Ltd. (CKNX) to renew the broadcasting • licence for CKNX-FM Wingham, Ontario expiring 30 September 1984. The Commission •considered the renewal application with • a view to determining if the licence for CKNX-FM could be renewed in. the Tight of the`Direction to. the CRTC ctp Issue and Renewal of • Broadcasting Licences to Daily Newspaper Pro- prietors (the Direction) dated 29 July 1982, issued pursuant to section 22 of the Broadcasting Act which empowers the Governor in Council -.-to identify classes of ap- plicants to whom broad- casting licences may not be issued or to whom amend- ments or renewals of such licences may not be granted. The licensee is owned 100% by Wingham Investments Limited which, in turn, is a wholly-owned subsidiary of the London Free Press Holdings Limited (LFP Holdings). LFP Holdings is also the proprietor - of the London Free Press Printing Com- pany Limited, which publishes the "London Free Press", a daily newspaper published in London, approximately 100 km. from Wingham. CKNX provides service to Wingham and to other adja- cent towns and rural com- munities in the area within the station's 500 microvolt per metre official contour, including portions of Perth, Bruce, Huron, Wellington and Grey counties. Accor- ding to figures provided in the Audit Bureau of Circula- tion, the circulation of the London Free Press in these counties accounts for less than 9% of its total circula- tion. Moreover, a large por- tion of the newspapers represented by this' 9% figure are circulated in the communities situated in the portions of Huron and Perth counties that lie at or beyond the most southerly extent of the licensee's ser- vice area. While there may thus be some degree of overlap between the major circulation area of the "Lon- don Free Press" .and the major "market., area .served by radio station .CKNX-FM, the Commission is satisfied that the major circulation " area of the London Free Press does not substantial- ly encompass the major market area served by CKNX-FM. Accordingly, the Commission is of the opinion that the licensee does not fall within the, pro- scribed class of applicants described in section 4 of the Direction. Based on the . licensee's performance and close 'adherence to the goals and objectives of the Commission's FM policy, the Commission renews the broadcasting licence for CKNX-FM 'Wingham to 30 September 1988, subject to the conditions specified.... in the licence to be issued.

Decision CRTC 84-607. Parts of the Towns of Vaughan, Rich- mond Hill, Markham and Whitchurch-Stoutfville, Ont. Following a public hearing in Hull, Quebec on 5 June 1984, the Commis- sion denies the application to change the authorized distribution for the broad- - casting receiving undertak;‘' ing serving the com- munities noted above by adding the: distribution on an experimental basis, of a digital, 24-hour, non -pro- gramming service con- sisting of advertiser -sup- ported classified ads, to be distributed on a non - discretionary basis to all cable subscribers. It is the Commission's current'= policy not to permit the distribution - of advertising material by cable television licensees on the grounds that this could adversely af- fect achievement of the goals of the Broadcasting Act and could erode the advertising revenue base of local conventional broad- casters. The Commission notes that the current ap- plication is similar to a pro- posal for a classified real estate. advertising service which was submitted by the applicant and by other Toronto area cable televi- sion licensees in 1981, and considered by the Commission in the context of the public hearing on n -programming services in Toronto early .in 1981. The Commission also refers toits recent statement con- cerning advertising on cable (Circular N° 297 dated 12 June 1984).'and reiterates that it is not prepared to consider a.ma- jor review of its cable televi- sion policy relating to advertising at this time, without an issue hearing. In this regard, .as indicated in • Public Notice CRTC 1983-232 dated 3 Oc- ..tober 1983, the Commis- sion intends to hold a public hearing, tentatively 'scheduled for .December 1985, to develop an overall policy on the carriage of non -programming services.

The Wingham Advance -T.111 ea, Aug. 15, 1984 ---Page 11 Murray ' ar.' fff seeking re-election in Huron -Bruce It's Murray Cardiff's sec- ond election campaign and according to his campaign manager, Ken Campbell, the incumbent is working harder the second time around. The 50 -year-old Grey Township farmer was first elected to the House of Com- mons in 1980 as Member of Parliament for the Huron - Bruce riding. Prior to his 1980 success, Mr. Cardiff was chairman of the White Bean Producers Marketing Board. In that ca- pacity, he participated in two trade missions to the United Kingdom. As Huron -Bruce MP, Mr. Cardiff has served on the Standing Committee on Ag- riculture and Finance. As well, he was a member of a task force investigating the possibility of a national trad- ing corporation and attended hearings across Canada, Europe and the U.S. In the Conservative Oppo- sition, Mr. Cardiff served as Deputy Agriculture Critic. He and his wife Betty have three children, Jeffrey, Joan and Scott. ISSUES The ever-growing federal deficit has to be curtailed, Mr. Cardiff says. Following his party's policy, he says responsible spending is the key to abetter economic pic- ture for the country. The MP says government spending has tobe looked at as an investment with re- turns. A larger tax base is needed across the country, says Mr. Cardiff, noting there has been no incentive from the federal government for ,ex- pansion in the small business sector. He says expanded small businesses would help spread the tax base. Mr. Cardiff says more jobs for Canadians can come through the small business sector, and that the, govern- ment's. role in job creation should be one of providing tax incentives to small bus- inesses for providing new jobs. He also believes that Ca- nadian trade markets have 'to be opened to improve the economy- . o Mr. Cardiff was part of 'a trade mission to Asian coun- tries in 1983. "We'have to be there and develop markets. " - A Conservative govern- ment says Mr. Cardiff, would assist businesses with research and development MURRAYCARDIFF particularly with foreign markets. In this ease, the re- turns are jobs and expanded markets, he says. The Conservative candi- date supports equal pay for work of equal value and says he hopes that cases of female employees being paid less than their male counterparts are less frequent. Mr. Cardiff says he also believes in merit increases and would not want merit in- creases eliminated if equal pay for work of equal value were legislated. The concept of non -work- ing women contributing to the Canada Pension Plan is supported • by the Conser- vative candidate. It has to be worked out with the prov- inces, particularly Quebec as it has its own pension plan„ says Mr. Cardiff. He opposes the sale of por- nographic material but adds that some people will say they have the right t watch or read whatever. they want in the privacy of their homes. The MP refers to the stand he took against Playboy scheduling on Pay TV. He says he received numerous letters from constituents on MRS. CLEM McLELLAN the subject so he took a stand against the programming. Mr. Cardiff supports cur- rent laws on abortion and 'Says they should be adhered to. He acknowledges there is a need for better education on birth control. Mr. Cardiff says there has been a "fla- grant abuse of abortions, maybe not in this area but in larger urban centres." - FARM POLICIES Mr. Cardiff supports the Agri -Bond program • as one way to finance the agricul- ture sector. On farm financing, the Huron -Bruce MP says the Farm Credit "Corporation (FCC) has to be turned .around. He notes that the FCC used to provide about 70 per cent of capital funding for farmers and now that fig- ure is at less than 35 per cent. Mr. Cardiff . supports tri- partite stabilization as a vol- unteer program, believing it is important that the federal. and provincial governments as well as the producer con- tribute equally to such a pro- gram. He emphasizes the need for developing foreign export markets to give a shot in the �r Brussels Personal Notes.

Recognizing the fact that farmers have faced financial difficulty, some to the point of bankruptcy, Mr. Cardiff says there are ways to assist the financially strapped farmer. He would like to see a fi- nancial review board set up to assist financially troubled before they go into receiver- ship. aThird-party mediation for the farmer and the financial institution, if there is diffi- culty, would be a step in the right direction, he says. The third party could open up communications between the farmer and financial in- stitutions, Mr. Cardiff be- lieves. "Farmers are hard workers and they will pay their debts if given a chance," says Mr. Cardiff, who has acted as a third party for constituents. Mr. Cardiff adhering to his party's platform, notes that Revenue Canada should be- come more responsible to the public. "It has to get back to the rule that people are innocent until proven guilty," Mr. Cardiff :says. As MP, Mr. Cardiff was in- volved in projects varying from getting grants for com- munity centres to research on world trade.
