Complaint filed against CIRR, licence renewed until 2020

Y

Yeziknoradio

CIRR (103.9 FM Toronto), a radio station licensed to serve the gay community has had their broadcast licence renewed until 2020, with due note:

"CIRR-FM is not a member of the CBSC and, as such, is not bound by the Code. For this reason, the complaint is being addressed by the Commission."

"Complaint – explicit programming
2. On 9 July 2012, the Commission received a complaint from an individual alleging that on 30 May 2012 at 4:17 p.m., CIRR-FM broadcast, without advisories, a program entitled Slap and Tickle Wednesdays featuring matters of sex, sexuality and sexual health that featured unduly sexually explicit material at a time when children could be expected to be listening."

That's just wrong. At least the unwanted behavior did not continue.
 
I don't care if the show caters to gay or straight people. If a show like this is allowed to be on air at that time of day, something is wrong.
