[edit] Controversy
The station was called before the CRTC to explain why they are not playing the minimum levels of Canadian content. The prime intervenor in these proceedings, an investigative journalist who had been hired before the renewal of the licence to provide required spoken word programming, was mainly concerned with the conversion to a commercial music and promotion format and the total absence of any enrolled broadcasting students. During the hearing the CRTC expressed the same concerns about serious violations of the requirements of the licence as a non-profit campus station. The intervenor also alleged that CRTC staff had missed serious irregularities in the corporate records which indicated the directors who were granted the renewal, did not legally exist and never controlled the operation of the station.
Soon after the hearing, the intervenor resumed his talk show program in the drive slot on weekdays, at the invitation of another campus station in the market. A decision on the hearing is still pending.
