Newcap received approval from the Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission (CRTC) on January 18, 2006[1] and CILB was officially launched on December 7, 2007 at 10:35 AM mountain time as "Big Dog 103.5", airing an adult hits format.
On July 7, 2017, at Midnight, after playing "Who Let The Dogs Out" by Baha Men (which was also the first song played as "Big Dog"), CILB took on the Boom FM brand and became "boom 103.5." The first song played on "boom" was "I'd Do Anything for Love (But I Won't Do That)" by Meatloaf.
