In 2007 , the Canadian Broadcast Standards Council faulted CKNW for airing " potentially dangerous information " during the Dawson College shooting . During the incident , CKNW had simulcast content from its sister stations in Montreal which included students speaking by cellphone from inside the school . A Vancouver man complained that the content could have told the gunman where the students were . The council said that as a result of modern technology reducing geographic distance as a barrier , CKNW had breached Section 10 ( coverage of violent situations ) of the broadcast code . The station broadcast the decision as required , but did not air an apology and the station manager said it was a " one-off situation " that would not affect CKNW 's policies
