I’m a french canadian, I live in Quebec. I read always yours topics in the forums with pleasure. I’m a amateur radio and i have my own webradio online. I want share to you a speech of Konrad von Finckenstein from the CRTC(the canadian radio and television regulator) about the possibility of a futur “license exemption” of the AM band here in Canada.
This is the speech:

“But we cannot stand still. The rules for common ownership of radio stations are defined in terms of both FM and AM. But as you know, AM is losing market share, and it has been a long time since we had a single application for a new AM licence. The question arises: Should we still be regulating the AM market? Is there a case to be made for letting it go by way of exemption?”

This is very interesting!!! But here in canada the other department of government to rule the airwaves is “industrie Canada” .But this part is just for frequency assigment and technicals specifications…not to rule the market and content… etc….this is the crtc job!

We will wait and hope about this here in Canada for the next years maybe……
