Sale of Station and CRTC Non-Compliances

On February 28, 2020, the CRTC granted approval for the sale of CIMM-FM and CHMZ-FM to a third-party with the condition that both stations' licenses would be revoked on July 1, 2020, if the CRTC does not receive documented evidence that the sale of the radio stations has been completed by June 30, 2020. [2]

Also, on February 28, 2020, the CRTC decided the fate of two other stations, which were the other radio stations also owned by Matthew G. McBride. The CRTC decided not to renew the broadcasting licenses for CKPM-FM and CFPV-FM, meaning that they would no longer be able to operate as of March 31, 2020.
