Mr. Speaker, again the problem is with the preamble to the question. Let me remind the Leader of the Opposition of some of the things that have been written concerning this issue by parties which he should agree are disinterested.
The Friends of Canadian Broadcasting: "I want to inform you of our strong support of the analysis and recommendations of your DTH review panel. We endorse their findings without qualification".
The Canadian Conference of the Arts: "The Canadian Conference of the Arts was quite supportive of the creation of this panel to deal with the issue of DTH in the Canadian broadcasting
system in a fair and timely manner. The panel has now discharged its responsibilities and it is our hope that you and your colleagues will move with dispatch to direct the CRTC to proceed on an urgent basis with licensing hearings for DTH undertakings".
