Acadia Broadcasting Applies To Purchase Moncton Station

Acadia Broadcasting is moving to add another radio station to its stable. The parent company of CKBW/HANK-FM has filed an application with the Canadian Radio Television and Telecommunications Commission to purchase CKNI-FM - News 91.9 in Moncton from Rogers Broadcasting. The Saint John based company currently owns ten stations here in the Maritimes and Ontario. Vice-President Jim MacMullin says he looks forward to bringing our brand of community focused, quality local radio to Moncton. The CRTC is expected to rule on the application later this year.
