[BC] Foreign Ownership

[rameuser at tmo.blackberry.net]

That is an interesting question. The first foreign might be Canadians. Two things could happen; the first would be the better stations near the border would be purchased and programmed for Canada avoiding CRTC rules. The second thing would be stations purchased either to be moved or shut down in order to improve other Canadian stations. 

The other foreign ownersgip would be by some of the major world wide groups. They would probably make long term investments and broadcasting might be better off.

I want to throw out an idea to the group and see how the rest of you feel  on
this subject. Bear in mind I don't think the rules should be or ever  will be
changed but curious as to your thoughts.

What do you think would happen to the broadcasting business if the
restriction of full foreign ownership were lifted?
