Danny Chisholm will defend his “home turf” at Riverside International Speedway on June 29 and 30 when the cars and stars of the NASCAR Canada Series make their only stop in Nova Scotia this year.

 Chisholm, an accomplished young racer from Port Williams, has called Antigonish home the past few summers, working at Nova Racing.

 The PRO LINE 150 on Saturday, June 29, and Choko 150 on Sunday, June 30 will be Chisholm’s second and third races, with the nation’s only national stock car racing touring series.

Canadian Radio Awards: 989 XFM Small Market Station of The Year

Broadcast Dialogue has announced the winners of the inaugural Canadian Radio Awards, which we’ve dubbed “The Howards” after our publisher emeritus Howard Christensen.

When Howard, a radio veteran and one of the original Broadcast News anchors, founded Broadcast Dialogue in 1992, he saw a need for both timely delivery of Canadian broadcast industry news, but also recognized the importance of creating a sense of community.

989 XFM is very proud to be the winner of the 2020 Station of Year – Small Market award.
