CFDM-FM (105.7 FM) is a community radio station serving the Flying Dust First Nation and the adjacent town of Meadow Lake, Saskatchewan, Canada.

CFDM radio began in the mid-1990s as a short broadcast (one to two hours each weekday) carried on the 105.7 FM frequency that had previously been used by MBC Radio's CJLR-FM. Since then the station has expanded to a week-long broadcast with live broadcast every weekday from 7 AM to 6 PM. CFDM Radio currently employs 4 people. [2] [3] [4]

The CFDM-FM call sign was also used by an unrelated radio station in Drummondville, Quebec, which operated at 104.3 FM from 1970 to 1976.
