Yellowknife online radio station Cabin Radio was denied an FM licence last year. But then, last summer’s wildfires threatened the community of roughly 20,000.
That’s prompted the CRTC to announce that it is re-opening applications to serve the market after Cabin Radio’s appeal for an exception.
Ollie Williams, the editor of Cabin Radio, joins Broadcast Dialogue – The Podcast to talk about the twists and turns of the regulatory process over the last five years, perseverance, and the enduring impact of local journalism.
