The station was first launched in 1967 as the first French language Radio-Canada station west of Ontario. Its studios and offices are in the CBC Regional Broadcast Centre on Hamilton Street in Downtown Vancouver, while its transmitter is located atop Mount Seymour.

CBUF also serves as the Première outlet for the Yukon, by way of a locally owned repeater in Whitehorse.

Programming

The station's current local programs are Phare Ouest, in the mornings from 6:00 a.m. to 9 a.m. and Boulevard du Pacifique in the afternoons, 3:30 p.m. to 6 p.m. CBUF-FM also produces the Saturday morning program, Culture et confiture from 7:00 a.m. to 11 a.m. On holidays, CKSB-10-FM produces holiday morning program for western Canada, Les matins de l'Ouest. Le retour de l'Ouest produced by Alberta's CHFA-FM, replaces regional drive programming on Première outlets in western Canada. During summer months, CBUF-FM produces Le monde chez nous a documentary series that is heard on Saturday mornings from 10 a.m. to 11 a.m.

gollark: I'm considering somehow coordinating it with the *other* reactor which burns TBU oxide.
gollark: Otherwise it turns off.
gollark: Basically, the top one transmits the powercell's fullness level (obtained via a computercraft thing since comparators appear to not work) and the bottom one receives that, reads the reactor's buffer level (it was meant to be heat but somehow I just get the RF output buffer level), and if the powercell is below full and the buffer empty it turns the reactor on.
gollark: Some screenshots of the controllers.
gollark: TIS-100 is a weird massively-parallel architecture of nodes running simple assembly programs communicating with each other.
