History

Owned by Pineridge Broadcasting, the station was authorized on May 8, 2008.[2][3][4] Corus Entertainment's CKRU-FM had also applied to use the 96.7 MHz frequency, but had to select a different FM frequency (100.5 MHz).

On May 11, 2011, the station signed on the air as Magic 96.7 with an adult contemporary format. The CJWV-FM call sign was formerly used at a radio station in Winnipeg, Manitoba. The station's morning program was hosted by broadcaster Dan Duran and actress Linda Kash.[5]

On September 1, 2015, CJWV-FM was purchased by My Broadcasting Corporation as part of the acquisition of Pineridge Broadcasting Inc. On September 2, 2015, CJWV-FM switched to an oldies format as Oldies 96.7.[6][7]
