Thank you, Chair.
Mr. Pelley, you talked about your responsibility to your shareholders, which I'm sure everybody here understands. You currently administer a licence that you hold in trust for the people of Canada. You have a responsibility to them.
It may not be a condition of your licence, strictly by legal definition, but you made a commitment; you made a promise to provide these news services to ethnic communities, and it sounds pretty clear to me like you've given up. You're saying to me, “Well they can get the news on the Internet”. I don't know too many seniors who watch news on the Internet. Young people do that; they get it from Facebook and Myspace, but most seniors don't. They're used to sitting down in their living room and watching news on television, which is the business you're in. You're in breach of those promises. You're in breach of those commitments.
I'd like to ask you this again, as Mr. Vaughan asked you. Why don't you relinquish the licence and let somebody else give it a try? I just want to mention a possibility. There are at least, I think, 25 Punjabi newspapers in the GTA that advertise. I know there are lots of very brilliant business people running those papers. I bet a consortium could be put together, or perhaps even one business leader, to provide news in Punjabi to the Punjabi community in the GTA. Why not let somebody else have a try? Why not go to the CRTC and say, “We can't do it anymore, we've given up. Let somebody else give it a try and let them have a licence”?
