so where does XWA Montreal fit into it?

[Kevin Vahey]

I am sure local politics entered into the equation back then. It
appears from research that CKAC had some English programming at the
time since it was an affiliate of CBS. There is still no getting
around that CFCF was shafted badly. It got worse for CFCF when CJAD
came along and was able to carve out a decent pattern even with CKLW
600 miles to the west.

I have never been able to pin down how CFRB Toronto lost its clear
channel allocation of 860 and wound up on 1010 protecting WINS. CJBC
was a secondary CBC affiliate and only went all French in the mid
60's.
