Word on the street, and it is only a rumour, is that the station has been bought by a Canadian buyer with off-shore support.

Interesting! Would the "off-shore" support have to be limited to 30%? And does the CRTC have to approve of this?

Foreign ownership is limited to 20% direct and a provision for 33.3% for holding corps.  It requires Commission approval.
