CRTC issues annual report on the communications industry

OTTAWA-GATINEAU, July 29 /CNW Telbec/ - The Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission (CRTC) today issued its annual Communications Monitoring Report. The report, which is based on 2009 data, provides an overview of the Canadian telecommunications and broadcasting industries.

In 2009, the communications industry accounted for 4.6% of Canada's gross domestic product with overall revenues rising 2.1% to $55.4 billion, compared with revenues of $54.3 billion the previous year.

As technological convergence continues to evolve in the 21st century, Canadians are increasingly using mobile and Internet services to communicate and access broadcasting content. By the end of the year, there were 23.8 million wireless subscribers and 8.3 million broadband Internet subscribers.

Broadcasting

In 2009, revenues for the broadcasting industry rose by 3% and totalled $14.4 billion. Growth was primarily driven by the distribution of television signals and by the specialty and pay television sector, which recorded increases of 7.4% and 5.8%, respectively.

These gains were partially offset by a drop off in advertising. The effects were felt most strongly by conventional television stations and radio stations, whose revenues declined by 7.4% and 5.2%, respectively.

Internet usage among Canadians reached new highs in 2009, with the consumption of broadcasting content among the most popular activities. Twenty-five per cent of anglophones and 20% of francophones reported watching a television program online. Similarly, 17% of anglophones and 14% of francophones listened to a radio station's audio stream over the Internet.

In 2009, the broadcasting industry contributed more than $2.8 billion to the development of Canadian talent and the creation and broadcast of Canadian programming.

Telecommunications

The telecommunications industry reported a 1.8% increase in overall revenues to reach $41 billion for 2009. The wireless and Internet sectors posted positive results, while revenues for long-distance and local residential telephone services continued to decline.

Broadband Internet, which enables the streaming and downloading of high-quality broadcasting content, was available to nearly every home through a variety of service providers. In addition, the percentage of Canadians that could access the Internet using their cellphones went from 91% to 96% in one year.

There was competition in all sectors of the telecommunications industry. Competitors of established companies reported $18.1 billion in revenues, which accounted for 44% of all revenues. In particular, cable companies increased their share of local telephone lines and residential Internet subscribers to 27% and 57%, respectively.

Additional information on the Communications Monitoring Report


The Communications Monitoring Report contains broadcasting data for the year ended August 31, 2009, and telecommunications data for the year ended December 31, 2009. The report reflects the worldwide economic downturn and the accompanying decline in advertising revenues experienced by broadcasters.

Broadcasting highlights

i) Radio

- In 2009, Canadians could access 1,221 different radio services,
including 41 digital services. There were 910 English-language
services, 265 French-language services and 46 services in other
languages.
- The average time spent listening to radio services decreased
3.2% from 18.3 hours per week in 2008 to 17.7 hours in 2009.
Private commercial radio stations captured 79% of the weekly
radio tuning share; the CBC 12.7%; and other stations, 8.3%.
- The revenues of private commercial broadcasters declined by
5.2%, going from $1.59 billion in 2008 to $1.51 billion in 2009.
- In 2009, commercial radio stations contributed $51 million to
the development of Canadian content.

ii) Television

- In 2009, Canadians could choose from 704 television services,
which consisted of 459 English-language services, 111 French
language services and 134 services in other languages.
- Canadians watched an average of 26.5 hours of television per
week, which was slightly below the 2008 average of 26.6 hours.
- Overall revenues for commercial television services were
relatively unchanged from one year to the next, coming in at
$5.47 billion. A decrease in revenues for conventional
television stations was mostly offset by an increase in revenues
for specialty and pay services.
- Private conventional television stations generated $1.97 billion
in revenues in 2009, which was down 7.8% from $2.14 billion the
previous year.
- Similarly, the CBC's conventional television stations reported
$392 million in advertising and other commercial revenues, a 5%
decrease from $412 million in 2008.
- Specialty, pay and pay-per-view television and video-on-demand
services saw their revenues increase 5.8% from $2.9 billion in
2008 to $3.1 billion in 2009.
- In 2009, private conventional television broadcasters invested
$599.4 million on Canadian programming, or $20.2 million less
than the $619.6 million spent the previous year. During the same
period, spending on Canadian programming by specialty and pay
television services totalled $1 billion, which did not a
represent a change from the previous year.

iii) Broadcasting distribution

- In 2009, 8.5 million households subscribed to television
services delivered via cable or Internet Protocol Television. An
additional 2.8 million households subscribed to satellite
services.
- The number of subscribers that receive digital television
services jumped to 7.6 million in 2009, an increase of 11.9%
over the 6.8 million subscribers a year earlier. Sixty-eight
per cent of all subscribers now receive digital television
services.
- Revenues generated from the distribution of television
programming went from $6.9 billion in 2008 to $7.5 billion in
2009, an increase of 7.4%.
- On average, subscribers paid $2.78 more per month for their
services in 2009, an increase of 5% over the previous year. This
increase can be explained by higher monthly fees, a greater
consumption of pay, pay-per-view and video-on-demand services,
and consumers upgrading to digital or high-definition
television.
- In 2009, broadcasting distribution companies contributed
$352 million to Canadian programming, including programming for
community channels. This total was 8% higher than the
$325 million allocated for this purpose in 2008.

iv) New media broadcasting

- Anglophones spent 14.5 hours online per week in 2009, up from
13.8 hours, while francophones spent 11.8 hours online, up from
11.1 hours.
- Anglophones spent 2.2 hours per week viewing online television
content and 4.1 hours per week streaming radio content. At the
same time, francophones spent 1.3 hours per week viewing online
television content and 4.6 hours per week streaming radio
content.

Telecommunications highlights

i) Revenues, expenditures and penetration

- Telecommunications revenues increased by 1.8% in one year,
growing from $40.3 billion in 2008 to $41 billion in 2009.
- Competitors of established companies accounted for
$18.1 billion, or 44%, of the total revenues, compared with
$17 billion in 2008.
- In 2009, telecommunications companies allocated $8 billion for
capital expenditures, which are used to maintain, improve or
expand networks. This amount represented a decrease of 33.4%
from the $12 billion reported in 2008, but was more in line with
the $7.8 billion spent in 2007.

ii) Wireless telephone services

- Total wireless telephone services made up 41% of all
telecommunications revenues as revenues grew 5.3% from
$16 billion in 2008 to $16.9 billion in 2009.
- The number of mobile telephone subscribers rose from
22.1 million to 23.8 million, an increase of 7.8% in one year.
- Wireless networks reach approximately 99% of Canadians. More

available to 96% of the population.

iii) Internet services

- Revenues generated from the provision of Internet services
increased by 6.3% in 2009, or from $6.2 billion to $6.6 billion.
Internet services accounted for 16% of all telecommunications
revenues.
- In 2009, the number of residential Internet subscribers grew by
2.6% to 10.1 million, or 75% of all Canadian households.
- Canadians continued to adopt faster Internet services. 62% of

year earlier.

iv) Local and long distance telephone services

- The number of local residential telephone lines dipped from
13 million in 2008 to 12.7 million in 2009. There was little
movement in residential revenues, which came in at
$4.79 billion, down slightly from $4.87 billion the previous
year.

all telecommunications revenues, compared with 52% in 2002.
- Cable companies served 3.4 million residential telephone lines,
or 27% of the residential market, and accounted for 23% of
residential revenues with $1.1 billion.

v) International perspective

- Canada had the highest penetration rate, at 78%, for broadband
Internet connections, but lagged behind in mobile subscriptions
with a penetration rate of 71%.(1)
- A survey of five other countries revealed that prices for
Canadian telecommunications service generally fell at the median
point. Canada had the lowest rates for residential telephone
service and the second-lowest for mid-level broadband Internet
services (featuring download speeds of 1.5 to 9 megabits
per second).(2)

[creative-radio] PressRelease from THE VOICE Refugee Forum on Brandenburg State

 

PressRelease from THE VOICE Refugee Forum on Brandenburg State intention
to loosen the residence restriction for Asylum seekers.

Caravan for the rights of refugees and migrants in Germany

The VOICE Online on Residence Restriction and Obligation for Refugees in
Germany
http://thevoiceforum.org/search/node/residence+restriction
**

Press Release from THE VOICE Refugee Forum
Noticing the Brandenburg State intention to loosen the residence
restriction for Asylum seekers.

We welcome the Brandenburg State government intention to abolish the
residence restriction obligation law "Residenzpflicht" within its region.
Nevertheless, we still see the rights of the refugees and migrants as a
game in the hands of Germany and its racist System. This game exposes the
conviction of some German – and also its left wing Activist- and their
compromise of refugee birthright in Europe.

The tendency to loosen the residence restriction is not only unique to the
states of Berlin or Brandenburg, but also practiced in Bremen and Bavaria.
We regard such approach as hypocritical and criticize it as not being
fundamental to the question on the issue of residence restriction but
rather as a kind of latent racism and concealed support for apartheid.
· It fails to acknowledge that the inviolable right of humans to move
freely is missing.
· So called tolerated refugees ("Geduldete") will still be faced with
residency restriction. This segregation of humans with rights from those
without rights is associated with racist idea that must be abolished.
· THE VOICE demands no right in part! No compromises with the rights of
humans! Freedom of movement for all in Germany and Europe! Residenzpflicht
must be abolished!

Loosening the residence restrictions in Brandenburg is being celebrated as
a positive step of direction of success to human rights. As The Voice
Refugee Forum we are not delighted not only because the freedom of asylum
seekers is being strongly limited even after this partial abolition, but
also because this regulation applies only to 1100 refugees whose cases are
still pending. The so called tolerated "Geduldete" refugees have always
been deprived of this freedom and are still exposed to the harassment of
the foreigners' authorities.
The residence restriction law has since 1982 violated the self
determination of refugees' life. This law is just a part of structural
racism from what we understand from a wider spectrum of special laws
applied to those who are not Germans.

Accommodating refugees in remote places keeps them isolated and aliened.
Notwithstanding the experiences and traumas they may have been through in
their home country and on their way to Europe, they are taken through
another psychological torture here in Germany.
Part of this institutionalized torture is this residence restriction,
serving as an instrument to criminalize refugees.
The accommodation in camps, the voucher system and residence restriction
are all living conditions purposely created to exhibit the German racist
culture of making refugees go throw difficulties to ease their deportation
back to that land where their life is endangered.
The VOICE Forum has since 2000 fought against such special laws like
"Residenzpflicht" and initiated strategies of civil disobedience.

„Some activists ended up in jail, some still awaits warrant of arrest.
Felix Otto spent 6 months in jail and was deported to Cameroon where he is
suffering now. We feel irritated and angry that others celebrate victory
over the compromised loosening of the residence restriction in one
region." According to the speaker of The VOICE Refugee Forum Yufanyi
Mboli, it is a big shame for Germany. "The total abolition of the
residence restriction in Germany is the only way to acknowledge the rights
of the refugees and we shall continue until this Apartheid law existing
only here in Germany is abolished.

THE VOICE continues to call on refugees to join the campaign of civil
disobedience against the Residenzpflicht and demands immediate abolition
of this special racist law.

Let us not forget that Germany had a similar edict during the National
Socialist regime. In 1938, a similar regulation for foreigners was enacted
in the "Ausländerpolizeiverordnung" of 22nd August 1938.

[creative-radio] Community radio station to debut with international Radio Barnraising

 

Community radio station to debut with international radio barnraising

Hudson, NY-- A new, community radio station serving 78,000 people in Columbia and Greene Counties prepares to go on the air with a weekend of trainings, workshops, and events. The radio station is WGXC and they are calling the event a "radio barnraising. In collaboration with Prometheus Radio Project, the barnraising will bring experts from around the country to train area residents in all aspects of radio production.

"For the past ten years, we've been fighting to take the airwaves out of the hands of the powerful few and place them in the hands of communities. We've supported many groups in starting low-power and full-power FM radio stations that serve as tools for social justice organizing and a voice for community expression," says Andalusia Knoll, Community Radio Coordinator with the Prometheus Radio Project.

The Prometheus Radio Project has helped many groups, including farmworker unions, civil rights groups, and rural arts organizations build their stations while training a new generation of radio organizers across the country. The collaboration with WGXC, which will broadcast at 3,300 watts as opposed to the 100 watts of low power stations, will be Prometheus's first full-power barnraising. This new station will be uniquely decentralized with three main studios spread out across the listening range, allowing broader participation from residents of New York’s Greene and Columbia counties. Partnerships are already forming with schools, music venues, and town halls to create live feeds from various locations, furthering the scope of the station.

WGXC was selected by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) to broadcast on 90.7-FM. With support from hundreds of donations and a matching grant from the federal government, WGXC is raising the necessary funds to go on the air.

WGXC: Hands-On Radio will be much more than just a radio station, with regular exhibitions and events, ongoing media trainings, a news blog, and community meetings. “We are all aware of the urgent importance of protecting and supporting our local resources, food system, watersheds, farmland, and local arts and cultures,” explains Kaya Weidman, a member of WGXC's Radio Council and co-founder of Germantown Community Farm. "WGXC is simply local media, a key tool for all these crucial issues."

The WGXC Prometheus Barnraising will take place in Hudson, NY with workshops and events from September 24-26. To register for the Barnraising go to http://www.prometheusradio.org/WGXC_barnraising
WGXC's mission is to cultivate and to preserve the unique character of our area, the voices, and conversations of Greene and Columbia county residents, especially those that are rarely heard. “Hands-on Radio” captures the essence of this project. WGXC’s participatory environment will bring to life the idea that media is not something that is fed to us, but something we create with our own hands, hearts, and minds. http://www.wgxc.org/

The Prometheus Radio Project is a non-profit organization that supports groups in building and operating participatory radio stations as a tool for social justice organizing and a voice for community expression. www.prometheusradio.org

[creative-radio] New Broadcasting Regulatory Policy for Canadian Campus and community radio stations

New Broadcasting Regulatory Policy for Canadian Campus and community radio
stations

http://ow.ly/2fdUg

Ottawa, 22 July 2010
Campus and community radio policy

*This document sets out the Commission's revised policy for both campus and
community radio. The Commission considers it appropriate to establish a
single policy for this sector that makes provision for differences in the
two types of stations where appropriate.*

*The matters addressed by the policy include:*

- *the role, definition and mandate of campus and community radio
stations;*
- *a simplified approach to licensing campus and community stations,
including elimination of the campus instructional category, elimination of
the distinction between Type A and Type B community stations, and revised
provisions for developmental stations*;
- *programming requirements*;
- *the role of volunteers;*
- *a new approach to funding the campus and community radio sector
through basic Canadian content development contributions from commercial
radio stations and the tangible benefits packages established in ownership
transactions*;
- *easing of limits on advertising on campus stations*;
- *technical matters, including the Commission's approach to low-power
stations;*
- *how the Commission will deal with competitive applications;*
- *other means of delivering programming, such as new media*;
- *Canadian ownership and control requirements and collection of
ownership information*;
- *cultural diversity*; *and*
- *other matters relating to the campus and community radio sector.*

*Finally, the Commission sets out how it will implement the various aspects
of the new policy.*

*A summary of the new policy is provided in Appendix 1.*

*A dissenting opinion by Commissioner Marc Patrone is attached.*

[creative-radio] Download of "Radio, newspaper and more: media tools for peace"

 

Sorry, I forgot to add the link. It is:

A recent helpful publication is:

Radio, newspaper and more: media tools for peace. Experiences from the field, 2002-2008
By Martin Zint, Neuwied (Germany): Eirene, 2009, 51 p.

Practitioners from radio initiatives in Chad, Niger, Mali and the Democratic Republic of Congo report their experiences regarding the function and perception of the media in both conflict management and the promotion of peace. The publication shows also the different contexts in which radio may be used to supply the large illiterate population with basic information (in Niger) or as a platform for political debate (Southern Chad). The reports from the field are complemented by conceptual considerations on media in conflict-prone societies. Altogether, this is a lively, bottom-up inspiration for conflict-sensitive media work. (abstract: CAMECO Update 4-2009 / Ch. Dietz)

Subject: [Stubblefield] Conflict Resolution Handbook Help needed
To: stubblefield@lists.prometheusradio.org

Hello everyone

My name is Erubiel Valladares and I am currently working for Radio
Movimimiento KPCN-LP in Woodburn OR.

I am working with Prometheus Radio Project in the making of a handbook that
can be useful for community radio stations.

I want to invite the people at this mailing list to see if anyone would like
to share some of their stories in conflict resolution in their stations
(stories that would be added to the handbook to give the examples and
scenarios, privacy of station name and peoples names will be respected. )

I would like to invite anyone that would like to help me out..

If anyone would like to take some time for a quick and simple questionnaire
to quick define the conflict and the solution that was in your case.. Please
feel free to contact me.

Sincerely
Erubiel Valladares Carranza
503-984-2756

Mil Gracias..
