History of Radio Station CHIM 102.3 FM

Station on the air since April 22, 2000.

Now the CHIM radio network has expanded into a non-commercial broadcast network with stations across Canada. Our vision is to see a Christian radio station in every city or town across Canada.

Approved on October 27, 1995 CHIM would become Canada's first non-commercial Christian radio station. On air testing began on December 24, 1995 and we officially went on the air on that Glorious Easter Sunday morning at 8:15 am, on April 7,1996.
