[IRCA] CKAC 730 will change format

[Sylvain Naud <esnaud@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I just heard a moment ago on CKAC 730 a canned message from the 
president of Cogeco Diffusion, owner of CKAC that there will be a format 
change effective from next Tuesday at 04:30 AM, DST. CKAC sports will 
become "Radio Circulation 730" (Traffic Radio 730). The sport 
programming including the Montreal Canadians games will be transfer over 
the 98.5 FM frequency, already a talk radio owned by Cogeco Diffusion. 
They also stated that their web site will continue to emphasize on sports.

The use of this format may be adequate for now since there is currently 
a known traffic chaos in Montreal due to many road repairs and major 
construction sites but I don't believe in a long term profitability and 
in my opinion, unfortunately this is the beginning of the end of CKAC-AM.
