Oops, yes you're right. Global has applied to upgrade CIII to 100kw post-transition. In any case, that will be a wee bit better than the current 3kW 
And it is official! Quebecor is applying to the CRTC to develop a new 24 hour cable news station. They will convert the existing SUN TV CKXT 66.1 to this new format. So OTA in this area may get its first 24-hour news station.
I wonder how long it will take. I couldn't find the application at the CRTC website. Given how many people SUN TV has already hired, you would think they plan for this to happen rather quickly. (They've hired Kory Teneycke (formerly Chief of Staff for the Prime Minister), Krista Erickson (CBC), David Akin, Brian Lilley but Rick Mercer turned them down.)
I want to see the application to the CRTC. It's not clear if they will continue broadcasting SUN TV OTA or just convert it into a cable-only channel.
