Mr. Speaker, this week in Ottawa the Canadian Association of Broadcasters celebrated its 75th anniversary at its annual convention “Broadcasting 2001: Connecting Canadians, Community, Country”. During the convention outgoing president and CEO Michael McCabe was inducted into the Broadcast Hall of Fame.
Michael has been an important part of Canada's private broadcasting scene for more than a decade. Throughout his 13 year tenure he nurtured the growth and evolution of private broadcasters. Through his leadership he has built consensus in a very competitive industry. We offer Michael our congratulations.
