Clear Sky Radio

Clear Sky Radio was a Canadian broadcasting company that owned radio stations in Alberta and British Columbia.[1] The company, headquartered in Lethbridge, Alberta,[2] was incorporated in 2006 after it was granted its first radio license.

In January 2018, Clear Sky sold CJCY-FM in Medicine Hat to Rogers Media,[3] and a 25% stake in the yet-to-have-launched CKOV-FM in Strathmore to Golden West Broadcasting (with Clear Sky's co-owners Paul Larsen and Mary McKinnon Mills retaining a majority stake).[4] In December 2018, it was announced that Vista Radio would purchase the remaining Clear Sky Radio stations.[5]
