No.
There's room for a very expensive yes. I do not believe it would operate in the red, but the return on the investment is bread with no butter.

It works, but it's not the bread and butter of the business.

The transmitter site was razed over the weekend; an Algonquin College radio prof confirmed it on Facebook Saturday.

On the RadioWest.ca site Dan Sys mentioned that none of the Bell stations that were closed earlier this year had a similar notice by the CRTC. Also Innovation, Science and Economic Development Canada or ISED has all of these Bell stations still listed as operational. Anyone else know more information on this?

Re: Rogers layoffs in Ottawa
Rogers is apparently putting at least some of the blame for the demise of CityNews 1310 onto the CRTC. Interesting way to maintain good relations with an entity that at least partially controls your fate.
(By the way, be sure to also check out the end of the article, where columnist Steve Faguy outlines the games Rogers is playing with all the call letters in its Ottawa area stations following the changes.)
