Re: [IRCA] U.S. Punjabi stations broadcasting into Canada

Pete,

That is true, the programming originates from Vancouver. But didn't the Mexican stations with transmitter sites in Mexico originate their programming from LA? Are the Canadian rules different, than in the U.S.?

I presume they mean 1110 Oak Harbor, 1550 Ferndale and 1600 Blaine WA. How can the CRTC stop a legally licensed U.S. broadcaster from the signal reaching Canada? Now, I figure they may be able to stop the stations from getting Canadian advertising, but I do not know the laws in Canada in that regard. I remember well the Mexican border blasters sending tons of signal into the U.S. No one stopped those stations. Some are still in English and broadcast to the U.S. CJRJ 1200 is calling the U.S. stations pirates, even though they are legally licensed stations on U.S. soil. Can the CRTC do anything? I do not see anything they can do, unless they have some control on the advertising from Vancouver. Any comments?
