BROADCASTING IN CANADA
Change Of System Planned
··GOVERNMENT OWNERSHIP
Ottawa. About three years ago a Government-owned radio STS- tem was begun in Canada under! the control of the Canadian Radio Broadcasting Commis- sion. At that time there were la considerable number of pri-
rate stations operating.
Some of these belonged to the Canadian National Railways and these were taken over to form the nucleus of a national system. Since then, several new. stations have been built or ac quired, and the Canadian Radio Commission has developed a
programme department which has been responsible for a great many good features on the air. It is proposed to take jover the larger private stations, | build new high powered stations and in time cover the whole Dominion.
