Interesting that they're pumping back money into traditional radio.

The letter argued that Canada’s radio regulations were designed to address the problems created by its vast geography, its “linguistic duality” (English and French), and the fact that space on analog radio is limited, making decisions about what gets broadcast necessary.

Gee, that's not the history I remember. I'm not super familiar, but wasn't it about holding back Americanisation? (We have radio band allocations separately)
