No more radio stations for Vancouver.
The CRTC conducted a Vancouver market assessment to determine if Vancouver could support another commercial radio station. Vancouver currently has 24 commercial radio stations, including seven ethnic stations, but not including non-commercial stations operated by UBC’s Student Radio Society and
Vancouver Co-operative Radio. The CRTC’s conclusion: Vancouver cannot support another radio station at this time. The CRTC will not accept applications for new commercial stations in the Vancouver market for the next two years.
