CKRL 89,1

About CKRL 89,1

CKRL 89,1 is Quebec City’s long‑running community station, broadcasting a rich mix of culture, local talk, indie and francophone music, and public‑affairs programming. As a non‑profit community service, it gives space to diverse voices, artists, and organizations across the region. Volunteer and professional hosts present news, interviews, and magazine‑style shows that reflect the city’s creative scene, neighborhoods, and everyday life. The aim is to inform, inspire, and amplify local perspectives that might be overlooked by commercial outlets.

The schedule embraces discoveries from Quebec and beyond, live sessions, author and filmmaker conversations, and coverage of festivals, galleries, and venues. Listings and bulletins help residents find concerts and civic events, while service elements such as weather and relevant notices keep people informed. CKRL connects engaged listeners who value independent perspectives and a distinctly Quebec City take on culture, ideas, and music, creating a trusted meeting place for communities across the capitale‑nationale.
