Travel Info Best cannadian radio station for news specially in Montreal? Travel Tips In my judgement CJAD800 news is better than 940news. Both are talk radio stations. There is also a French news station but it seems you are interested in English ones. CBC1 (at 2 frequencies: 88.5 and 104.7) is like a mixed-programming NPR station. And in fact NPR also comes in very strong from Vermont PR at 107.9 (at the end of the day it is very interesting to compare the news programs of NPR's "All Things Considered" and CBC1's "As It Happens" which have similar formats and happen to be timed one after the other). If we want to suffer listening to American rightwing blowhards just to be reminded how dangerous the USA remains, and be moralized to, WVMT from Burlington, VT. comes in clearly at 620. During daytime the signal of CFRA580 newstalk in Ottawa also comes in clear (the best newstalk station in my judgement,with good news and talk hosts of varying points of view) and at night several American news and newstalk stations come in strong, including WCBS880 New York, Bloomberg1130 New York, WWKB1520 Buffalo, and 1080Hartford. Some nights WTAG580 Worcester (the station CFRA reduces power for to avoid interference) also comes in as well. In the west and southwest suburbs of Montreal you can pick up another NPR station (North Country PR from Malone, NY. Source(s): I am a suburban Montr茅aler. Other Travel Tips CBC Radio One is the best radio station overall. It is national, btu they have tailored programmes based on where you are. Otherwise, there are also a couple of NewsTalk stations: CJAD 800 and 940 News. However, I find them both far too editorial and whiny. Half of their programmes consist of eldery people phoning in and complaining about anything and everything. In Montreal, best news radio station is CJAD which is an AM station. Think its CJAD 800. In Toronto, best news radio station is 680 News, also AM. Best station for Canada wide news is CBC1. |
