Where the girls are

In a couple of months, cable station TalkTV will be transformed into MTV Canada, sending many shows permanently to the archives of CTV. Among them is the recently cancelled self-titled Canadian talk show, hosted by Vicki Gabereau. Gabereau got her start in Brampton, as an announcer on CHIC radio, “Where the girls are”. Canada’s first radio station with only female announcers, before the 1970s it was CFJB, a station set up by Fenn Job in 1953. Two stations—one FM, one AM—catered to a variety of musical tastes. The station also featured Greek, Italian, Croatian, Macedonian, and Finnish-language programming.
