Tom Pentefountas, vice-chairman of broadcasting at Canada’s telecom and broadcast regulator, has announced that he plans to step down within weeks, leaving his position about four months before his term expires.
In an e-mail to staff members of the Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission (CRTC) on Monday, Mr. Pentefountas said it was “with mixed emotions that I must announce to you today that I will be leaving the commission on November 20.” His five-year term was officially set to end on April 3.
