From: Stephen Hartwell stephen@ashnet.com To: procedure"@crtc.gc.ca;srtv@srtv.on.ca Subject: Public Hearing 2001-8: Jan Pachul Date: Monday, August 20, 2001 12:45 PM Dear Secretary General, 1/ of 1/ I humbly submit my support for Star Ray TV low-power community television, and I request that you do too. My reasoning is that in addition to providing a local 'voice' that the community can depend on, and benefit from, in every way, culturally, socially, economically, it serves an even higher purpose, similar to 'farm teams', and 'below those' the volunteer 'little leagues', in sports. It is a long well known fact that when the infrastructure and resources of any large scale interest is made available in degrees all the way down to the grass roots level, where everything has it's origins, all the levels from the bottom to the top benefit and are self-sustaining, and resulting in a much higher quality of 'results' at every level. Thank you for considering my 'voice'. -- stephen hartwell toronto, canada **End of Document** |
