CFJC TV
CFJC-TV has the unparalleled distinction of being the first small market television station in Western Canada. CFJC went on the air in 1957 under the call letters CFCR and has been blazing a trail forward ever since. ‘Local Matters’ is the heartbeat of our operation. We serve an area from Kamloops, Merritt and the Shuswap in the south, to 100 Mile House, Quesnel and Williams Lake in the north. Over the decades CFJC has won dozens of provincial and national awards, including numerous best small market tv and radio newscasts, and countless awards for our coverage of important community issues. The station’s founder, Ian G. Clark, was named to the Broadcasting Hall of Fame for his pioneering achievements in radio and television, leaving an immeasurable legacy to the communities we serve.
