CHVN-FM (95.1 FM) is a commercial radio station in Winnipeg, Manitoba. It broadcasts a Contemporary Christian music format and is owned by Golden West Broadcasting. CHVN's studios are located on St. Mary's Road in south Winnipeg, while its transmitter is on Red Coat Trail near 424 Road in Springstein.[1]

History

In January 2000, the CRTC approved an application by Christian Radio Manitoba Ltd. for a new specialty FM radio station in Winnipeg, focusing predominantly on Christian music.[2] The group originally planned to broadcast on 107.1 FM, but this was denied by Industry Canada. The station instead chose to broadcast on 95.1 FM instead.[3]

In 2004, Golden West Broadcasting acquired a controlling stake in Christian Radio Manitoba Ltd.[4] The merger made CHVN by far Golden West's largest station by market size; most of CHVN's stablemates are located in small towns in the Prairies.
