As CKLN, the station was a CBC Radio affiliate until the 1960s. [4]

As part of a mass format reorganization by Bell Media, on May 18, 2021, CKKC dropped the adult contemporary format and the EZ Rock branding and flipped to adult hits, and adopted the Bounce branding. [5]

On February 8, 2024, Bell announced a restructuring that included the sale of 45 of its 103 radio stations to seven buyers, subject to approval by the CRTC, including CKKC, which is to be sold to Vista Radio. [6]
