CHOI Radio X 98.1 FM

CHOI-FM 98.1 Radio X broadcasts from Quebec City as an alternative talk and rock station, operating with 100,000 watts of power from studios at 575 rue du Marais. Known for its controversial talk programming and rock music blend, the station has served Quebec's capital region since 1990. Radio X maintains a fiercely independent stance despite ownership changes, most recently joining the Groupe Radio Simard network in 2021.

The station's unique format combines hard-hitting talk shows with alternative and classic rock from artists like Nirvana and Metallica. Radio X's programming features provocative hosts like Jeff Fillion and maintains strong listener engagement through call-in debates on Quebec politics and social issues. This unconventional approach has cultivated a loyal audience among Quebec City's working-class francophone population.
