"It's been 13 years since our licences were renewed. This is an important process and we look forward to working with the commission on exploring ways to meet our challenges," Hubert Lacroix, president and CEO of CBC/Radio-Canada, said back in September.
Up until Oct. 5, the public was welcome to submit comments about the renewal process to the CRTC.
