CFCR Community

We would like to extend a huge THANK-YOU to one of our most legendary Hosts, Don Kossick, for 35 years of thoughtful, poignant, informative, and heartfelt radio on “Making The Links.” Don embodies what Community Radio is all about, and we are so fortunate to have had him be a part of our organization, both on- and off-the-air.

Listen to Don’s final episode, produced with Peter Garden from Turning the Tide Bookstore.

For three decades, Don Kossick has been “making the links” on CFCR 90.5 FM. His final show as host features our own Peter Garden. They talk about community radio, community bookstores, and the devoted people who keep both going.

We’re grateful to Don for his dedication, and to CFCR for 35 years of independent, community-powered radio in Saskatoon.
