Refine by MP, party, committee, province, or result type.
Canadian Heritage committee Exactly. We want to put repeaters around all the other communities. We're in the city of Fredericton, and we do broadcast other programs, for the simple reason that we have to have advertising to operate. It would be very difficult if we had nothing but aboriginal language on there.

Canadian Heritage committee Yes, they are all over the place. We'd like not only to educate our own people; we also want to educate the non-aboriginals within our communities and the surrounding areas who are listening to us--about why we have treaty rights, for instance, or why we do certain things. It is important for non-aboriginals to understand that concept.

Canadian Heritage committee We're pretty much just doing it on our own. We've been doing it right from scratch. I got a personal loan from my bank. We went to the federal government and all the federal agencies, and nobody would give us a penny toward starting up the radio station. I took a personal loan out at the bank to do this.

Canadian Heritage committee I believe they're mandated to provide a certain percentage of aboriginal content. They're doing some of it, but on a site-specific basis, for Maliseet people for instance, it's hard to get the language programs mixed with all the other programs that are involved with CBC. It's a big corporation.
