CRTC announces new dates for recently postponed broadcasting hearings

The CRTC on Monday announced new dates for two of the broadcasting hearings it recently postponed after the federal election was called last week. The public hearing focused on the definition of Canadian content will now start May 14 in Gatineau, while the hearing concerned with creating a sustainable Canadian broadcasting system is scheduled to begin June 18. A new date for a third hearing, related to supporting Canadian and indigenous audio content, has not yet been announced. It had previously been scheduled to start June 18, before it was postponed.
