CBC Radio One in Vancouver is currently only available on the AM dial and it has been estimated that Nearly 40% of Vancouver residents have reception problems on the AM frequency. But the CBC's Mandate states that it should "be made available throughout Canada by the most appropriate and efficient means and as resources become available for the purpose...". If 40% of Vancouver can't pick it up, it is clearly not being made available by the most appropriate and efficient means. It is not, however, up to the CBC. It is the CRTC that will decide if the CBC can move to the FM dial. The last date/time for public comments is Please take a moment to tell the CRTC what you think is Midnight on Wednesday, January 23rd (Tomorrow night). Please take a moment and ask the CRTC to let the CBC fulfill it's mandate.
• Go directly to the form on the CRTC website and click on the button #2007-18. http://support.crtc.gc.ca/rapidscin/default.aspx?lang=en
• Check the box beside #200714239 (in the list, this is the second CBC application) and go to the bottom of the page and select next.
