Cbc Radio Nord Quebec

CBC North is the name for the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation's radio and television service in the Canadian Arctic. Originally known as the CBC Northern Service, its first operations began in 1958 with radio broadcasts including the takeover of CFYK, originally a Royal Canadian Signal Corps-owned, community-run station in Yellowknife, Northwest Territories, which began broadcasting in 1948. About the same time the CBC took over CHFC in Fort Churchill, then an army camp in northern Manitoba; the station had previously run a variety of programs including American AFRS shows. Peter Mansbridge is its most distinguished alumnus.
