Halifax Station and Radio Station

CRTC: It helps the new generation know the culture and rules, said Karam, the station president, according to The Chronicle Herald. They started on the project in 2012, but their license was rejected by the CRTC because of shortcomings in their application. The Halifax station began signal testing on Friday, and by the end of March will be providing music and news content for Arabic-speaking Haligonians on their 99.1 FM station, named CHHU. The purpose of this radio station is to help these new immigrants adopt, access and integrate into a new society. They reapplied in 2014 and were approved. We had requests from many Nova Scotia Lebanese residents who went to Montreal, where we have a station already, and asked us to put a program here. All major cities in Canada have a concentration of immigrants, and this community here plays a big role in the city, he said. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
