URGENT - To Preserve our abilities to listen to PRAISE 106.5

PRAISE 106.5 FM
URGENT URGENT - CANADIAN Listeners We Need YOUR Help!
It has come to our attention that the CRTC is considering an application by Aboriginal Voices Radio to use the frequency of 106.3FM in the Lower Mainland.
If this application is approved, PRAISE 106.5FM expects that there will be significant interference with our broadcast into the Lower Mainland area, as 106.3FM is the frequency immediately adjacent to 106.5FM.

The CRTC is accepting letters and comments from the Canadian public. We want to continue to
broadcast clear messages of hope and encouragement into the lower mainland and we value your assistance in doing so. All letters and email correspondence must be received by the CRTC
by Monday, June 5, 2006.
So, to do this...
1. You must send a letter to the CRTC.
2. You must send a COPY of your letter to Aboriginal Voices Radio.
