Shaw Media plans new national all-news channel called Global News 1

Building on its leadership role as a local news service, Shaw will submit an application to the Commission for a new hybrid local/national, English-language, Category C specialty programming undertaking to be known as Global News 1, a service that will expand and diversify the amount of news and information-related programming in the Canadian broadcasting system. There is no specialty news service that currently provides such a service in this country, namely the provision of uniquely local reflection.

I had the EXACT same concept planned out for the U.S. major markets called "News 1" and a radio division appropriately called "News 1 Radio." THIRTEEN YEARS AGO! I developed this format when I was in high school!

As such, I'm writing to Shaw and demanding they pay me my licensing fee :D
