Online Consultation on Television Services - Welcome �

Online Consultation on Television Services - Welcome �: "To learn more and to share your thoughts, please select a topic from the navigation bar on the left side of this page.

The TV industry is transforming like never before – more channels, more ways to access TV shows, more competition, new technologies and challenging economic times. These factors are influencing your programming choices, expectations and viewing habits.

The CRTC is looking at whether it should change its regulation to allow the industry to adapt so that Canadians can benefit from the broadcasting system. Among the different options under consideration, we are studying whether local television stations should be able to charge cable and satellite companies for distributing their programs. Cable and satellite companies do not currently pay a fee for local TV signals and must distribute them as part of their basic service."

InsideTheCBC.com � The CRTC Wants to Hear From You

InsideTheCBC.com � The CRTC Wants to Hear From You: "As part of the ongoing deliberations around the fee-for-carriage hearings, the CRTC is asking for comments from Canadians on the affordability of local TV, access to local programming and other issues.

To this end the CRTC has set up a web site where you can submit your views. The comments will form part of the public record on the issue and some of them will be included in a special report for the government."

Expand the Flight | Aviva Community Fund

Expand the Flight | Aviva Community Fund: "Laser Eagles is a successful Art Guild located in South Etobicoke. Ten artist with physical limitations create art with the support of facilitators called trackers. These trackers hold the brush and paint while the artist tells them what the picture should look like. Since many of the artists cannot speak or use their hands, the relationship between artist and tracker is unique, empowering and transformative!

Our idea is to expand Laser Eagles and make it available to people everywhere in Toronto."

Toronto educator dies after contracting swine flu - The Globe and Mail

Toronto educator dies after contracting swine flu - The Globe and Mail

A Toronto educator working at a Canadian school in Hong Kong has died after contracting the H1N1 swine flu.

Alan Dick, lower school principal at the Canadian International School of Hong Kong, fell ill on Sept. 20, the school said in a letter. He took the week off, but attended a meeting with school director Dave McMaster on Thursday.

Three days later, Mr. Dick, 55, was admitted to hospital, and “his condition deteriorated rapidly and he passed away in the afternoon of the same day,” Hong Kong's Centre for Health Protection said

Canadian International School of Hong Kong - In Celebration of Alan Dick

Canadian International School of Hong Kong - In Celebration of Alan Dick

For many of our students and their parents, Alan Dick personified the Canadian International School. Alan joined us in 1994, when the school was just three years old. A passionate and dynamic educator, and a proud Canadian, Alan created an incredible legacy through his contribution to the development of our school and our community.

He did so not from behind closed doors, but with tremendous personal warmth and charisma. Each and every day, he greeted students at the school entrance, addressing every child by name. Every afternoon, he sent them home the same way. It was all part of creating the "Smile Factor", which was his personal measure of the success of our school. At assemblies that Smile Factor was infectious, as Alan led the children in singing songs ranging from O Canada to the Hokey Pokey. He taught children what it is to be a global citizen, and what it was to be a Canadian.

He also imbued his students with a love of school, a love of learning and a love of education (even if they didn't realize it) by making the school a loving place. Every Valentine's Day he gave out cinnamon hearts brought back especially from Canada. He was a great hugger, and loved to visit the children in class, where he disrupted many an individual lesson, to teach a far larger lesson. In some respects, Alan was a perpetual kids, with his Funny Bunny, Winnie the Pooh staff badge, silly ties, and extraordinary Hallowe'en costumes, but always underpinned with a very adult approach to education. His playful approach won the children's hearts and so, their minds.

Justifiably, Alan was hugely proud of CDNIS, and loved to share that on his weekly tours of the school for the parents of potential students. He was particularly proud of the Leo Lee Arts Centre (LLAC) which he helped design. Although pink was Alan's favourite colour, he chose yellow, his favourite decorative colour, for the lobby. The art on the walls of the LLAC and throughout the school is another of Alan's celebrations of our students, and reflected his own interest in art.

Personally, Alan enjoyed sharing the finer things in life, appreciating wine, martinis, music and art. He traveled extensively but was happiest here, in Hong Kong, and at his cottage in Ontario. As a global citizen, Alan himself bridged two cultures, Canadian and Chinese.

Alan, 55, joined CDNIS from the Canadian Overseas Secondary School in Hong Kong, arriving here in 1990 from Canada where he served as Principal of the Mittimatalik School of Pond Inlet in Nunavut, in the far north. He earned his Bachelor Degree in Education, an Honours Degree in Science and a Masters Degree in Theology, all from the University of Toronto. A dedicated life-long learner himself - the book "The Learning Leader" remains on his desk, now a testimony to the way he sought to live.

Alan is survived by a sister, a brother and his parents.

He was an extraordinary character, larger than life and living life large, and he will be sorely missed as an educator and a friend.

YouTube - CKNX TV - Doc Cruickshank's Dream: "CKNX-TV 8 other than when it merged with CFPL in the 90s. With CHWI (Windsor), it will be gone by summer 2009, but the station began entertaining a whole generation from tiny Wingham, Ontario in 1955. Please feel free to comment and identify any of the personalities if you can. Hope you enjoy it half as much as I have making it."
