Checking in the band by RDS, the company loses hockey next season. Is it a result of this brilliant lockout? If so, will those who had the idea to make "talk" in the locker room.
SRC INTENDS TO THE MAXIMUM FOR PRESERVING THE TRADITION OF THE HOCKEY NIGHT
As you may have read in this morning's Journal de Montreal, the management of the Club de Hockey Canadien, together with NHL wants its games are presented to a single network, ie, RDS next season.
This decision would mean a First, the ghettoization of Canadiens games on a network accessible only via cable and, secondly, the end of a tradition of half a century of loyalty among viewers, Radio-Canada and Canadian Montreal. The current situation we are disappointed and surprised us both. There are only a few weeks, we had a verbal agreement with the Canadian who met all their expectations and met the financial requirements and programming of a network of state general as ours.
We recently learned with astonishment that the offer was rejected and the preferred direction of the Canadian wanted a single network.
Be assured that we will make every effort to preserve the tradition of Hockey Night in our antenna, the oldest Canadian television program, and offer to all people, from coast to coast, the possibility of watch the games free of tricolor. Moreover, Minister of Canadian Heritage, the Honourable Sheila Copps, was aware of the threat presently on the future of Hockey Night .
We will keep you informed of developments surrounding this issue, which will certainly much attention in the coming weeks.
Daniel Gourd, Executive Director of Programs (French Television)
