Industry Canada OKs Vidéotron tower
According to the Ottawa Citizen, Industry Canada quietly granted Vidéotron a licence to build the 25 storey telecommunications tower on ch Elm, early in November. An official of Industry Canada referred all questions to the FAQ section of their website. (I could find nothing on this particular tower or decision.)
If you have any more information or better links, please comment or add them. Thanks.
