History

The station received CRTC approval on December 7, 2001 and originally began broadcasting in FM in 2002.[1] CJVR is currently a sister station of CKJH, which first went on the air in 2002. CJVR originally went to air on October 8th, 1966 at 1420 AM. In 1995, CJVR moved to 750 AM, where it remained until March 1st, 2002 when it switched to FM.[2]

On August 20, 2018, the Jim Pattison Group announced its intent to acquire Fabmar Communications pending CRTC approval.[3] The sale made CKJH and CJVR-FM sisters to Jim Pattison Broadcast Group's cluster in Prince Albert.
